Physical Description 5 : Physical Description 5 Videorecording system:
VHS, Beta, U-Matic, DVD
Goes in field 538
Provides important information in a unique field
Using 538 allows local systems to designate 538 as first field, an advantage over general 500 field
AACR2 7.7B allows format note to be first: “Give a particular note first when it has been decided that note is of primary importance”

Physical Description 5 : Physical Description 5 Durations of videos: Rule 7.5B2 refers to 1.5B4
If playing time is stated, give as it is stated
If not stated, but “readily ascertainable,” give it
If not stated and not readily ascertainable, cataloger may give estimated time
Otherwise, do not indicate time
LC does not apply this option of estimating
Country Code 5 : Country Code 5 Traditionally coded for country of production, from Statement of Responsibility (245 $c) when it could be determined
Leftover from the days when motion picture films dominated and there were a relatively limited number of copies of each film in circulation, and generally not for sale
MARBI Discussion Paper to bring Visual Materials coding into line with all other formats (Country Code corresponding to 260 $a)
Policy has not been officially changed, but the sentiment seems to be in the direction of making VIS the same as other formats, especially in light of Format Integration
Color Systems : Color Systems Indicate color system when it isn’t your standard or if you have diverse collection

Otherwise, indicate colorization in a note
“Colorized version of the motion picture originally issued in black-and-white in 1955” for instance
In some catalogs, a uniform title for the film with the parenthetical “(Color version),” might also be appropriate

Be sure 007 $d and 300 $b reflect “color”
Be careful about dates for colorized versions

Video publishing technique to fit the wide rectangle of a motion picture image into the much more square space of a TV screen
Reducing size of video image so that entire horizontal span fits onto the video screen
Leaves black horizontal bands above and below the image
It's ugly but retains the integrity of the image
Treat letterboxed versions similarly to colorized versions
