D-Link partners with Veoh in bringing Internet Video to the TV

June 6, 2023 By Dennis Bouchand 2 Comments

dlink.pngD-Link and Veoh Networks announced that the D-Link PC-on-TV (DPG-1200) will feature VeohTV, a free service that provides both branded and user-created video content in high-quality for full-screen environments.

D-Link PC-on-TV is a breakthrough product for the growing media player market that lets users enjoy on their TVs virtually anything they can see on their PCs, including web-based content such as videos, movies, photos and TV programming. D-Link PC-on-TV will ship with a link to access VeohTV directly from the television, providing a single interface to search, browse and view thousands of videos found on the Internet. It offers programming from major media companies as well as independently produced content available on sites such as YouTube, Google Video, Veoh.com and MySpace. As with television, the player uses a remote control and displays PC video for a full screen TV experience.

D-Link PC-on-TV comes pre-loaded with VeohTV, which then launches into a channel guide, similar to the kind found in cable systems. Viewers can browse through channels or search by keywords, and watch full-screen video on demand. VeohTV users are able to stream directly from the host site or, as with a conventional DVR, click a button to download permitted videos to their hard drives and watch them at their leisure, either online or offline.

ClipBlast! to index video content from MLBroadcast.com

June 5, 2023 By Cristina Ledesma Leave a Comment

< href="http://www.clipblast.com">ClipBlast! announced that it will index all current and future video content from real estate marketing innovator MLBroadcast.

The move comes amid both persistent volatility in the real estate market–a market defined by the subprime mortgage crisis and the rash of foreclosures in its wake–and a significant shift in the industry from print to online media, particularly video. According to Borrell Associates, real estate professionals invested $2.6 billion in online advertising in 2007, a 26 percent increase over the previous year. The firm projects that real estate advertising online will grow more than 12 percent this year, with agents and brokers spending more ad dollars in online media than in traditional advertising avenues by the year 2010.

MLBroadcast enables real estate professionals to produce, syndicate and broadcast video content. Through a syndication method know as video podcasting, the company adds the appropriate data to the listing and then submits the podcast to a network of video directories that use this standardized data format to display the channel and its individual videos. The company also submits individual videos and the data associated with them to popular video portals, including ClipBlast!.
