Internet TV to reach mainstream viewers in 2008

June 2, 2023 By Leo Blanco Leave a Comment

It seems the invasion of Internet TV is inevitable. According to the latest projections by eMarketers.com, 154 million or 52.5% of all Americans will stream or download online videos at least once a month.

Now here’s something hulu.com is dying to hear. It turned out American and British online viewers prefer to “watch programming online that is produced by professional TV networks and film studios.” In terms of video contents, 40% of Americans favor short clips, usually five minutes or less, about movie trailers, music videos, news, TV shows and jokes.

Looking forward, the growth of rising channel is expected to slow down in 2012 simply because it will reach its saturation point with almost 90% of the American population watching online videos.

On the perspectives of video providers, an ideal business model goes beyond the ability to stream and store online videos.

“From the video provider’s perspective, online video is not scalable, which means that the more people viewing video at a Web site, the more it costs that site to serve video and/or the slower the video gets served,” says David Hallerman, eMarketer senior analyst and author of this report.

DailyMotion implements INA’s technology on copyright detection

May 29, 2023 By Dennis Bouchand Leave a Comment

Dailymotion said that it is implementing INA’s “Signature” technology across all localized and local language Dailymotion sites. Dailymotion’s use of video filtering technology follows several other copyrighted material protection initiatives throughout the site, including a hashing system, blocking videos that have already been removed from the site and use of an audio fingerprinting solution. In addition, Dailymotion is an original signatory to the UGC Copyright Principles.

INA´s innovative image-based technology is based on a signature, or digital fingerprint, which constitutes a genetic code representing a sequence of images. Content that has been protected by a producer or a broadcaster using this technology will be automatically detected and will either be rejected or managed according to agreements before it is placed online.
