Unlimited access to video libraries stored on servers will add a whole new level of convenience as users find they can quickly access more information than ever before. Traditionally, dealers prepared VCR tapes of videos showing the horses running on tracks or fields. When requested, the dealers loaded the corresponding tape, cued it to the right position, and played the video. Only one buyer could watch the video of a horse at a time. Simultaneously, buyers can independently play the video of any horse from any kiosk.
Users have complete control, such as playing the same video many times or jumping to another video.
The viewing statistics also provide invaluable information to the auction organizer for controlling the bidding process. Users can replay any video within the last, say 24 hours, at any time. A typical analog business TV system has an Audio Video Center connected to a set of TV monitors via analog cables. TV monitors are strategically located in conference rooms, cafeterias, hallways, and lobbies. Employees must leave their offices to watch a video broadcast.
