ThorstedOk <a href="https://digipres.club/tags/avpres" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#avpres</a> question. We recently digitized an old umatic tape with a documentary on it. Only one audio stream in stereo with the left side being English and right side being Vietnamese. Currently the MKV only has English for the audio stream. Without splitting the audio stream into two, what is the best way to manage the technical metadata? <a href="https://digipres.club/tags/digipres" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#digipres</a>

qenyaA question for <a href="https://unstable.systems/tags/digipres" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#digipres</a> folks: Is there any reasonable way to retrieve any part of an archive.org item if the uploader has chosen to remove it (possibly many years ago)? I'm aware many items have torrents but I'm not sure where to find them if the IA entry is no longer visible, and I'd be doubtful anyone would still be seeding anyway.I'm aware this is a long shot, just trying to find some things of personal significance...<a href="https://unstable.systems/tags/AskFedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AskFedi</a> <a href="https://unstable.systems/tags/DigitalPreservation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DigitalPreservation</a>

James Truitt (he/him)I've seen systems that use magnetic tape, but do any <a href="https://code4lib.social/tags/digipres" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#digipres</a> folks use "archival" gold CDs for long-term storage? If you've considered them but said no, what made you turn away?
