Note:

Be aware that scope or 3-D movies may not always be replicated that way on home video. Similarly, some video releases may offer a different audio configuration to the one originally intended (5.1, Dolby Atmos, etc.). In each case, the Index provides details of the primary audio-visual specifications, and any video version which deviates from these specs constitutes a revision of the original intentions, potentially compromising the effectiveness of the presentation.

 Also, the given running time assumes a projected frame-rate of 24 frames per second (except for TV material in countries where the broadcast frame-rate is 25fps). Most VHS and DVD releases in the UK are replicated at 25fps, causing a subliminal speed-up that 'reduces' the running time by around 4 per cent. Most Blu-ray releases (including 4K) are replicated at the original 24fps.
