Metadata Part II: Extra Screen Value Cont.
argues Trainor. “Metadata behind content is a static description of the content when actually content is unstructured and dynamic, the description of an asset changes over time, as language, interest and relevance changes. Trying to map with these tools is inherently flawed because they are mathematical approximations. They will inevitably get it wrong with pretty dire consequences. Erroneous metadata can be less valuable than no metadata.” For Trainor the central issue is about what’s on the companion device. “Is it useful, engaging, adds value, doesn’t detract from the viewing experience and is commercially valuable. All of that requires a creative skill not a technical one,” he says. “There isn’t as yet a defined second screen spec. At this early stage each experience will be different depending on the content and the market being targeted, so not only are there technical limitations for adoption, but if the content doesn’t work then no-one will adopt it.” DMT has developed a series of algorithm-based metadata tools unveiled at IBC. “Ultimately, there is so much data out there for media owners to consider that the task seems insurmountable,” continues Trainor. “Not only do they have to know their content index completely, but they need to know what’s trending in the market, understand the data of consumers, understand the data that they have internally and from third parties and somehow match all that to their content into a scalable commercial model that permeates all platforms.”

Digital Nirvana and Venera Offer Signal Partnership
Digital Nirvana and Venera Technologies have formed a technology partnership that will see Venera’s test and measurement components available within Digital Nirvana’s flagship Monitor IQ broadcast monitoring solution. “Our intent with this partnership is to produce products with unprecedented capabilities to monitor and analyse digital video and audio signal integrity,” said Ned Chini, VP of Sales and Marketing, Digital Nirvana. “The need for such products is critical in our industry. We anticipate that our joint development roadmap will result in powerful new technology and capabilities that will greatly improve and streamline our customers’ operations.” Monitor IQ combines the functionality of a signal monitoring, aircheck logging, archiving, and competitive analysis tool in one highly scalable system. Digital Nirvana also markets other key products including: the MediaPro IQ System for fast content repurposing, and the ManyView IQ System for affordable video distribution using IP multicasting, shown at IBC. Venera Technologies showcased its flagship product, the Pulsar File-based Automated Content Verifier System, at IBC. Venera has made its mark by providing cutting edge digital media solutions that automate quality control processes in file-based workflows. Vikas Singhal, Executive Director of Business Development for Venera Technologies, said: “Our two companies are a very good match because we both offer complementary best-in-class products and in-depth expertise in the field of digital video signal monitoring.” ■
Crucial Content
Unfortunately for many producers metadata is not very high on the agenda. “It has the perception of being a dusty, administrative and archive process which gets in the way of the programme being made,” says Niall Duffy, Managing Director of consultants Mediasmiths. “That is changing with the realisation that when content is available on different platforms, not describing that content well to make it attractive to watch or purchase is a massive marketing own goal.” According to Tom Morrod, Head of TV Technology, IHS Screen Digest, metadata will become one of the most important topics over the next five years “because it is absolutely necessary in order to perform multi-platform distribution and recommendation.” Without metadata, he says, it’s very difficult to market on-demand content to consumers. “It is the future of television and the future of content distribution. Metadata is increasingly becoming a commodity business, with multiple suppliers offering comparable services in each market. You can think of metadata as packaging the content to devices with business rules governing its use on DVRs or mobiles for example, how it is best viewed or supposed to look on devices or contextual information users may find helpful to help them select to view or purchase.” ■
