YouTube Video Fingerprinting

June 12th, 2007 by Annkur

Reuters reports that Google’s YouTube is ready to begin testing their video fingerprinting tool on Time Warner and Walt Disney video content.

YouTube has also been testing technology to help identify the audio tracks of video clips with major record labels using technology provided by privately held Audible Magic as early as the first two months of 2007, the company said.

These tools will be made available to all content owners later this year, YouTube executives said on Monday.
YouTube executive Chris Maxcy is reported to have said that the tool would be tested in a month’s time.

Breach of copyright has been an ongoing problem for YouTube, and in March, the media company Viacom launched a lawsuit against YouTube for $1bn.
