Frequently asked questions

Who can download Airtimefootage video?
Almost anyone can use the service assuming they accept and abide by the terms and conditions. Airtime does, however, reserve the right to refuse use of its material by specific outlets.
 
Who are most likely to use Airtimefootage video?
Airtimefootage video is supplied in a professional, broadcast-quality format and we anticipate that programme makers, television stations and corporate video producers are the most likely users. Although there is nothing to stop domestic users accessing and using the video.
 
What format is it supplied in?
This may change from time to time but the predominant download format is Quicktime h.264 which is delivered as a .mov file. Experience has shown that this offers a high level of picture quality in a relatively compact file.

What region is it supplied in?
All material is PAL, which is how it was shot. Most professional edit systems will easily convert it to NTSC if required.
 
What edit systems will accept this format?
The latest versions of the major edit systems will accept Quicktime h.264. It is popular with applemac users and is becoming increasingly acceptable to windows users. Broadcasters invariably have no issues bringing this format into their systems.
 
Do you supply footage in other formats?
We are happy to supply our video direct to clients in other formats, although there may be a transfer cost. Give us a call or an email and we’ll do our best to accommodate you.
 
Are the descriptive notes accurate?
We do our best to ensure that dates and descriptions are accurate although we cannot guarantee the authenticity of the details.
 
What is the copyright position with Airtimefootage video?
Please refer to the terms and conditions. But in general terms, Airtime is the sole copyright owner and retains the copyright of all the downloadable footage.
 
How is material purchased?
Simply work your way through the system. Unless you have a merchant account with us, payment is via Paypal and payment can be made directly with a credit card on the secure Paypal site. Once the purchase is made, return to your client status page and click the 'download' link. Many clients find it convenient to save the file in a specific area of their system such as 'documents' or 'desktop'.
 
Do you offer discounts for multiple purchases?
We are often able to offer attractive discounts, parfticularly for programme makers who want to use a number of clips in a single programme. Just contact us for details.

What is the picture quality?
Picture quality varies between clips with many of the early, analogue items having a slightly dated feel - but this is the same with all video libraries. Everything is shot on video rather than film and delivered in standard definition rather than high definition. All the clips are, of course, broadcast quality.
