'''Title Metadata''' ('''TMD''') is a format used on the Nintendo Wii game console to store a collection of files that make up a title (a single "piece" of software, roughly the technical realization of a Wii "channel") as well as metadata about that title, including cryptographic information (in addition to [[Ticket (Wii)|Ticket]] data).<ref>https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Tmd_file_structure</ref> It seems to usually be split up into the header and data sections and embedded in another file; this occurs with [[WAD (Wii)|WAD]]<ref>https://wiibrew.org/wiki/WAD_files</ref>, the [[Wii Disc]] format<ref>https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Wii_Disc</ref>, and [[Content.bin]]<Ref>https://wiibrew.org/wiki/Content.bin</ref>.
