Once selected, the file can be automatically transformed from its original format and resolution to the appropriate format for use in print or the Web. One of the fastest growing complex file types for Web usage is video. Chuckwalla has added direct video content access through support for Virage VDF files. Virage VDF files contain a structured index that can be read and processed by Chuckwalla.
Users can visually search a video by spoken word, clip, closed caption text, or keyframe.
Search results can be viewed by playing a clip of that particular video segment to determine if the clip that's been found is actually the one the user wants. Copyright 2001 INT Media Group, Incorporated All Rights Reserved.
