What does Avid's ALE documentation define for dailies handoff, and how does the ACES AMF guide extend it for AMF linkage (and where is that guide inconsistent)?

An Avid Log Exchange file (per the 1999 MediaLog guide) is tab-delimited text with a Heading section of global settings (FIELD_DELIM TABS, VIDEO_FORMAT NTSC or PAL and AUDIO_FORMAT are required; FPS shown in the sample), a Column line naming fields such as Name, Duration, Tracks, Start, End and auxiliary timecode, and Data rows per clip. Curator correction 2026-10-23 (discovery audit record C3-B688-09; sources re-fetched 2026-10-23, excerpts re-located by curator GET): Problem. C2-B16-B2-07 says the Avid MediaLog guide 'documents no colour-metadata columns'. Correction (clarification). Table A-2 lists an optional 'Color Framing' column with no explanation. It is a video colour-frame field, not grading metadata, so the intended claim holds, but the absence statement should read 'no colour-grade or colour-space columns' and mention this column. Limitations. Meaning of Color Framing is inferred from context; the guide gives none. Version/date. Part 0130-04230-01 Rev. A, August 1999. Curator qualifications: Guide read 2026-10-22; no log files parsed. Exact required-column list and Scene/Take clip fields from producer reading; 1999 document, later ALE versions may differ. Limitations: Guide read 2026-10-22; no log files parsed. Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
