What is this BS EN 62289 - Helical-scan digital video cassette recording format about?
BS EN 62289 discusses video recording and helical-scan digital video cassette recording format using 12,65 mm magnetic tape and incorporating MPEG-2 compression with a focus on format D-10. BS EN 62289 specifies the formatting for the recording of data blocks containing MPEG-2 compressed video, multiple channels of AES3 audio, and associated data which form helical records on 12,65 mm tape in cassettes.
BS EN 62289 defines the helical track record parameters, the content and format of the longitudinal records, and the cassette physical specifications. The compressed video uses the MPEG-2 compression which is defined by ISO/IEC 13818-2 with constraints as defined. The compressed video channel supports frame frequencies of 30/1,001 Hz (hereafter referred to as 525/60 system) and 25 Hz (hereafter referred to as 625/50 system).

Why should you use BS EN 62289 - Helical-scan digital video cassette recording format?
Calibration tapes meeting the tolerances specified below should be made available by manufacturers of digital television tape recorders and players in accordance with BS EN 62289.
BS EN 62289 specifies the compression constraints and bit stream characteristics of an MPEG-2 4:2:2P@ML video elementary stream operating at bit rates up to 50 Mb/s. One of the intended applications is to provide a bit stream compatible with the D-10 format digital recorder.
BS EN 62289 specifies the recommended implementation of the compression model for the D- 10 format digital recorder with an MPEG-2 video-ES bit rate capacity of up to 50 Mb/s. This model includes the recommended input and output interfaces for the D-10 recording format.
