again this year in San Francisco on New Tee Vee site that deals with television and video over the Internet has created a world conference with the best experts in this field. New Tee Vee
Live 2009 was held on November 12 last year and has had among its guests Hunter Walk, YouTube's Director of Product Management.
Here are the key points of his speech.
YouTube grown impressively arriving at the figure of one million videos viewed daily. Walk says more than "media company" is a "catalyst media" that is, it is proposed that connect users and producers of content regardless of their importance. Are uploaded to YouTube about 20 hours of content per minute, this large amount of material, however, causes difficulties for the user who does not know what's really interesting for him. This is why YouTube is doing a great job to make its channel becomes very personal in this mechanism have a lot of weight subscriptions, what we have seen in the past and not just in the last session. To do this he introduced the "related videos" column that the javascript: void (0) we see usually open at the bottom right as we watch a video. Among these are also seen video from our friends, or those who would like to see in a previous session the other day. What YouTube is trying to do is to push content to the user in mind everything he saw.
As we have seen has just been introduced for high quality filmati.Solo 1% of YouTube videos is high quality but the percentage will rise to about 10%. For this reason, such as video conversion has changed. Walk on YouTube says that video quality will be equal to or better than the file sorgente.Per why videos of the past are in the works to be re-encoded so that they can take advantage of the highest quality, we are currently at about half the job. The video quality will be accessible to all users who may persist to see high quality video if available requiring only the beginning of the session.
YouTube is trying to make their content even at a traditional television viewing on a large screen. Mobile phones have great weight in making videos since the beginning of the rise of video from mobile was 200%, and the release of a new model of mobile phone is a steady increase in the time of video shot and loaded with these devices. The traditional view TV in your living room is an interesting question, YouTube is aligned with producers of new technology and large broadcasters with regard to content. About 8 million Americans have tried to connect their TV to the computer, but it is a difficult task, so if the devices will accelerate this operation, users can easily follow these changes.
YouTube content is found via search engines or sites that fit the video to another, it makes no difference to the operators of YouTube because they believe it is important to attract the user into the site. One reason is that advertising will tend to be integrated within the video stream itself. This is necessitated by the growing consumption of video on mobile. He is also experienced as the major trading partners derive benefits from YouTube by making their content available, especially when they interact with users. Finally it is interesting to live streaming on the theme of which is being tested recently, an example is the live concert YouTube broadcast live in November 2008.
