Session Description: When will supply of premium inventory become outstripped by demand? What effects will this have on the online video marketplace? Some advertisers would argue there is a glut of quality, premium inventory online. Some would say there is almost infinite inventory. Who is correct? Can premium video actually command a premium on price? Are video ad networks killing the price and creating a low cost marketplace for video that hurts the chances for ...

In their quest to make everything searchable, Google is now starting to index what is being spoken in video clips, or to be more precise, what is being spoken in YouTube clips. This is done by using speech recognition technology to convert the audio into words which is then indexed into Google search. Then if you want to find a particular video clip or if you want to find out if someone has mentioned a ...

Google Labs has launched an experimental audio search which allows one to search text within YouTube videos. “Google Audio Indexing“, it’s called. On the backend, Google has taken the audio tracks of YouTube videos of politicians, and automatically converted it to text for search capability. How will this impact the overall internet? Well, here-to-fore, videos were mostly searched on metadata — that is, text associated with a video indicated what the video was about. Videos ...

Mefeedia, a Web video search startup with a claimed source list 15,000 strong, announced the addition of six more this week. They’re some pretty high profile ones, too. Revision3, Next New Networks, 60 Frames, On Networks, and Hulu and ABC. Granted, the viewing experience delivered by each publisher individually is generally a more pleasant one. And ABC-based video, as you might expect, cannot be viewed through Mefeedia directly. The network has had an near-exclusive hold ...

Yesterday, I could not get out of my head a comment made by a panelist on the session, “Video Search Engine Optimization (VSEO)” at SES, namely Greg Jarboe. Greg mentioned an example video whereby most users who watched the video, discovered the video primarily through social sharing mechanisms (sharing, embedding, etc…) vs. video search. Specifically, he presents findings for a video about Nicholas Carr and goes on to point out that 7.4% of views came ...

There have been several recent announcements surrounding the application of speech-to-text analysis in consumer search settings. Google announced its Political Gadget, enabling visitors to search the spoken word of content within YouTube Presidential candidate’s channels. Adobe plans to include speech-to-text features in future versions of its video authoring applications, such as Premier. Sites such as WEEI and FOX Sports have been using similar tools to power search and publishing applications for their multimedia archives for ...

Not a week goes by when Google CEO Eric Schmidt doesn’t wring his hands in public about the problems of monetizing online video. Could it be that algorithms and contextual ad targeting will do the trick, just like they did for web pages? That would be rather convenient, but it hasn’t seemed likely so far. But on that note, we’ve been looking into a stealthy Bay Area computer vision startup focused on video search called ...

The program that literally lets you search or 'discover' new photos and videos across the web by just moving your mouse ... in simulated 3D! A few hours ago, PicLens implemented a few changes... and, as usual, it just keeps getting better. The program is now available for Firefox 2 ...

One of the most popular vertical search features on the web is image search index. What’s really remarkable, however, is how little has changed in the core technology approach to the indexing of multimedia over the last decade. When I was the head of product at FAST back in 1999, we launched the web’s biggest image search on Lycos with over 50 million images (which seemed like a lot at the time!). The service included ...

Apparently searching video is really hard, as market leader Truveo today declared a competition to help it find new video search applications. And the prize? $100,000 in cold, hard cash. The problem with video search is not just difficult technology, but usage habits — or more specifically, the challenge of getting people to use your product. So it makes sense that Truveo would be focusing on “customized applications that use Truveo’s open API,” as it ...
