About 53byte ClipId

Hey Guys,

Could we convert 53 bytes to 32 bytes GUID, or if the clip id is converted from some guid?

Thanks a lot.

    The only other way of saving and using a ClipID is to use the 40 byte Canonical Form. The APIs to convert to / from Canonical Form to standard format are in the API Reference Guide.

    You cannot "choose" your own format, regardless of how unique that might be. The ClipID contains hashing information and (depending on the storage strategy) an internal GUID.
