  • Predicting Quality of Experience for Online Video Service Provisioning
    Multimedia Tools and Applications https://doi.org/10.1007/s11042-019-7164-9 Predicting quality of experience for online video service provisioning Utku Bulkan1 & Tasos Dagiuklas1 Received: 22 November 2017 /Revised: 6 December 2018 /Accepted: 3 January 2019 # The Author(s) 2019 Abstract The expansion of the online video content continues in every area of the modern connected world and the need for measuring and predicting the Quality of Experience (QoE) for online video systems has never been this important. This paper has designed and developed a machine learning based methodology to derive QoE for online video systems. For this purpose, a platform has been developed where video content is unicasted to users so that objective video metrics are collected into a database. At the end of each video session, users are queried with a subjective survey about their experience. Both quantitative statistics and qualitative user survey information are used as training data to a variety of machine learning techniques including Artificial Neural Network (ANN), K-nearest Neighbours Algorithm (KNN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) with a collection of cross-validation strategies. This methodology can efficiently answer the problem of predicting user experience for any online video service provider, while overcoming the problematic interpretation of subjective consumer experience in terms of quantitative system capacity metrics. Keywords Quality of experience (QoE) . Machine learning . Online video services . Content delivery.QoEmodelling.SubjectiveQoEassessment.H.264.HTTPstreaming.MPEG-DASH. VOD 1 Introduction Over the last decade, video has become the main component of the Web. In today’sworld, social media, news channels, conventional television broadcasting and also most of telephony products are all built upon video services [1, 2, 42].

  • ACM a Closer Look at Online Video Platforms
    Report A closer look at Online video platforms The Netherlands Authority for Consumers & Markets A closer look at online video platforms Summary The Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets (ACM) has conducted a market study into ‘online platforms that stream videos’: websites and apps that offer videos that users can watch online. Examples are YouTube, Facebook, Dumpert (a Dutch video sharing site owned by Telegraaf Media Groep), and Vimeo. With this study, we wanted to answer two main questions: 1. How does the market for online video platforms function? 2. What anticompetitive risks and risks to consumers exist in this market? In this report, we present the results of our market study in two parts. Part 1: How does the market for online video platforms function? We describe the 10 most important online video platforms that are active in the Netherlands. These platforms differ from each other in the content that they show, in the extent to which they are open to content from third parties, and in the way they offer their services and generate revenues. These differences in business models determine with whom they compete and how they connect the three sides of their market. Those three sides are: offering video content the use of video content by consumers the online advertising chain Offering video content Many different content providers are active on online video platforms. These include more traditional participants such as broadcasters and film distributors. However, they also include other parties that produce content (whether or not professionally). More and more platforms have a business model in which third parties that offer content share in the advertising revenues.

  • Transitioning Broadcast to Cloud
    applied sciences Article Transitioning Broadcast to Cloud Yuriy Reznik, Jordi Cenzano and Bo Zhang * Brightcove Inc., 290 Congress Street, Boston, MA 02210, USA; [email protected] (Y.R.); [email protected] (J.C.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-888-882-1880 Abstract: We analyze the differences between on-premise broadcast and cloud-based online video de- livery workflows and identify technologies needed for bridging the gaps between them. Specifically, we note differences in ingest protocols, media formats, signal-processing chains, codec constraints, metadata, transport formats, delays, and means for implementing operations such as ad-splicing, redundancy and synchronization. To bridge the gaps, we suggest specific improvements in cloud ingest, signal processing, and transcoding stacks. Cloud playout is also identified as critically needed technology for convergence. Finally, based on all such considerations, we offer sketches of several possible hybrid architectures, with different degrees of offloading of processing in cloud, that are likely to emerge in the future. Keywords: broadcast; video encoding and streaming; cloud-based services; cloud playout 1. Introduction Terrestrial broadcast TV has been historically the first and still broadly used technology for delivery of visual information to the masses. Cable and DHT (direct-to-home) satellite TV technologies came next, as highly successful evolutions and extensions of the broadcast TV model [1,2]. Yet, broadcast has some limits. For instance, in its most basic form, it only enables linear delivery. It also provides direct reach to only one category of devices: TV sets.

All rights reserved. White Paper: How to Select the Best Video Player Intro – Why focus on the video player? This white paper offers a unique way of looking at your online video strategy. The strategy is usually comprised of many parts: content, branding, monetization, user engagement, social capabilities etc. In this paper we take a look at all these strategic elements through the lens of the player experience. If you are able to present a powerful video player that is both feature-rich and quick to load and respond – you are going to be successful. Think of the player as a brick-and-mortar store: beautiful glass storefront with a well-branded skin, convenient buttons and a beautiful thumbnail will help lure the viewers. Once they click “Play” it is like they walked inside. This is where the player’s technology lights up to deliver a smooth video experience that will impress users regardless of their location or device. The player capabilities should inspire the user to take action, based on the strategy goals: watch more videos, click on ads, answer an interactive survey, upload UGC content or share your content with the world.
