          Appeal No. 96-1184                                                          
          Application No. 08/128,568                                                  


               read the data on track CO in each of frames 1                          
               through 25 (for example), . . . .                                      





          Robison states (column 11, lines 41-42) that "a universal ID                
          code dictionary is illustrated in FIG. 7."  Thus, Robison                   
          discloses                                                                   
          defining the format for the photographic data in a look-up                  
          table which is stored.  In other words, Robison teaches                     
          storing on a recording medium both recording format (or                     
          organizational) data and photographic data for each image                   
          frame, with the recording format data indicating the recording              
          format for the photographic data.  Cloutier includes language               
          almost identical to that quoted above from Robison in columns               
          3, 4, and 10, respectively.  Accordingly, claim 36 is clearly               
          met by Robison and Cloutier, with the remaining references                  
          being merely cumulative. Consequently, we will affirm the                   
          rejection of claim 36.                                                      
                                     CONCLUSION                                       



                                          8
