I think it falls under cinematograph film as per Copyright Law.

What is a cinematograph film?

"Cinematograph film" means any work of visual recording on any medium produced through a process from which a moving image may be produced by any means and includes a sound recording accompanying such visual recording and "cinematograph" shall be construed as including any work produced by any process analogous to cinematography including video films.

Thank you Sir!

 

I believe then I shall have to send copies of all episodes (on DVD) to the copyright office.
