ABSTRACT:
A photosensitive medium, such as motion picture film, having digital data in multiple formats and analog audio signals photographically recorded thereon, and a system for photographically recording digital data (preferably including digital audio bits) in multiple formats and optionally also analog audio signals on a medium. Preferably, two digital soundtracks are recorded on the film, each in an array of bit areas arranged in row and column order, with the bit areas of one soundtrack between consecutive pairs of sprocket holes along one edge of the film, and the bit areas of the other soundtrack along the film edges outside the sprocket holes. Preferred embodiments of the invention include a camera assembly through which a motion picture film translates in real time. The camera assembly includes a first assembly for photographically recording digital data on the film in a first format by exposing the film to light of a first wavelength, a second assembly for photographically recording additional digital data on the film (in at least one different format than does the first assembly) by exposing the film to light of a second wavelength, and optionally also a third assembly for photographically recording analog audio signals on the film. Alternative embodiments include a first camera assembly for recording digital data on the film in a first format by exposing the film to light of a first wavelength as the film translates at a real time rate, and a second camera assembly for recording additional digital data on the film (in at least one different format than does the first assembly) by exposing the film to light of a second wavelength as the film translates at a less than real time rate.
