SMIL (multimedia playlists) includes support for RDF/XML metadata. You can use the Creative Commons Module to include licensing information.

Developer Challenges

We need examples of including license metadata in SMIL for the purposes of denoting that a SMIL playlist itself is published under a Creative Commons license or that individual components of the playlist are licensed. Even better if you can use dc:source to specify parent playlists/works. (SVG has similar support for RDF/XML metadata.) Read more about the motivation in this cc-metadata post.
