Global Market for Mobile Video Services to Reach US$30 Billion by 2017, According to New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.

San Jose, CA (PRWEB) November 09, 2011

Follow us on LinkedIn – Entertainment services over mobile devices potentially generate several billions of dollars for service providers, worldwide. Despite the fact that ringback tones and ringtones continue to be substantial revenue generators for mobile service providers, other services such as gaming, full-track music, video and TV services are emerging as lucrative market segments. Buoyed by the huge demand for data communications from mobile users in both business and consumer markets, content providers, right from independent content developers to large-scale movie studios are beginning to develop applications, music, games movies and videos especially for mobile devices. Not surprisingly the use of mobile devices is extending beyond the traditional communication functions to embrace novel concepts such as mobile videos, and games. Mobile video segment especially is gaining tremendous popularity over the last few years. Despite being a small market, mobile video services continues to grow, with video-on-demand, video telephony and video messaging capturing a significant share of the markets revenue. With Internet providing a large number of video services, and service providers increasingly willing to offer these services on mobile devices, video is rapidly making inroads into the mobile arena across the geographies.

The impact of the 2007-2009 recession, in retrospect, reveals a market that has withstood the recessionary pressures largely as a result of the continued growth in sales of mobile video capable smartphones and increase in the number of phones supporting 3G and other faster networks based on High Speed Packet Access (HSPA). Consumer interest on downloading and streaming mobile video and mobile TV content remained largely unchanged during the recession period, proving that quality entertainment was left uncompromised even amidst tight economic conditions.

Consumer spending on choicest of mobile videos largely remained intact despite the witnessed reduction in household wealth, low consumer confidence, reduced discretionary spending, and lower new application development efforts. In other words, served right on to consumer handsets, mobile video services allow users to cut down traveling expenses and provide an alternative to other expensive entertainment options, such as, public movie screenings and live sports action and therefore are best for entertainment in a weak economy. Continued interest shown by wireless carriers on data centric services, particularly for utilizing their networks optimally and improving their ARPU by offering value added content to cost conscious customers, also boosted prospects for mobile video services market during the period, as the same resulted in increased promotional activity and more attractive pricing options for mobile TV and video services. With mobile users graduating towards a richer, and more sophisticated mobile experience, the market for video delivery has and will continue to remain opportunity-rich, and dynamic.

Growth in the market, although stabilizing, will nevertheless be driven by introduction of novel video services, particularly the highly popular content on YouTube and growing adoption of live TV services such as live news, weather forecasts and music programs. Improvements in quality of content, content protection and delivery frameworks are expected to boost market prospects for mobile video services over the next few years. Increased use of mobile videos by companies as a platform to advertise their products and services augur well for the market. Widespread availability of sophisticated mobile devices supporting mobile video downloads and streaming and ongoing deployment of advanced mobile networks will also boost the adoption and consumer spending on various mobile video services.

Introduction of economical and flexible data plans by service providers will attract many new users to the market, thereby increasing revenue making opportunities. Widespread deployment and availability of 3G mobile network infrastructures across the world will continue to drive adoption of video services over mobile. With mobile network operators making active efforts to move towards 4G technology, which promise faster connectivity, higher bandwidth and superior capabilities and enable the service providers to offer a range of video services to mobile users, the popularity of mobile video services is expected to increase further.

As stated by the new market research report on Mobile Video Services, Asia-Pacific represents the largest regional market worldwide. Asia-Pacific is also the largest regional market for mobile video services in terms of subscription. Rapid proliferation of 3G enabled handsets, introduction of 3G services in major nations such as China, and India and growing popularity of mobile video services such as mobile video sharing, mobile video communication and mobile TV are primary factors driving accelerated adoption of mobile video services in these markets. Streaming Services represent the largest service segment in the US mobile video services market. Growth in the market is particularly driven by increased advertising of subscription-based streaming video services in the nation. Multicast Video Services market represent the fastest growing service segment in the US mobile video services market with revenue waxing at a CAGR of about 38.7% over the analysis period.

RightView Pro Adds Strategic Partners for Advanced Video Analysis at Every Level

Saturday, November 19th, 2011


Rolling Hills, CA (PRWEB) November 30, 2011

Originated by former Major Leaguer Don Slaught, RightView Pro was started in 2001 after Slaught had accepted a baseball coaching position at Palos Verdes Peninsula High School. I wanted to show my players what the best hitters in the world were doing, and I discovered very quickly that I needed a coaching tool, Slaught said. I was dealing with 60 kids in a two-hour practice, and I needed to specialize in what I was teaching each one.

Slaughts first product was a collection of still photographs, using a VCR analog system to display them. But, after consulting with Major League Baseball, work began on the first software program in conjunction with MLB. Today, the 10-year old company has greatly expanded and offers a full line of instructional and analysis systems for the part-time coach working with his or her players on a limited basis, all the way to college, international and professional teams.

An exciting new development launching this December is the RVP mobile app for video anaylsis. For just $ 9.99, the RVP app enables Apple and Android users to capture swings and pitching motions directly to their phone. Coaches and players will be able to compare and sync with pro models, draw lines, and step forward and backward frame by frame. Users will even be able to share video with their RVP analysis system for advanced analysis.

RVP users should also keep a lookout for the RVP Branded Academies to share talk and draws with students online. Through this locker-type system, coaches can post lessons and communicate with their players, which should be especially helpful during breaks or for coaches who see players only once or twice a week.

In addition, RightView Pro is excited to announce a partnership with Bloomberg Sports, which is also the new analytic partner for Major League Baseball. When we partnered with Bloomberg, we wanted to provide the best analytic experience for our baseball and softball clients. Specifically, we wanted to concentrate on delivering relevant reports to the sport of softball. Not only are we focusing on benchmarking softball related events, but adding the nuances that only pertain to softball. Weve asked a handful of coaches including Mike Candrea, Kelly Inouye-Perez and Lisa Fernandez to work with Bloomberg to produce these softball-specific reports, which will serve as an upgrade to our top-of-the-line Stadium Edition, said Misti Guenther, RightView Pro executive director. Through the upgrade, RVP clients will have online access to analytics that include statistical benchmarks and grading with visualizations that Bloomberg Sports has developed for its MLB products, in addition to services to measure and improve performance.

About RightView Pro

RightView Pro was founded by former Major League Baseball Player, Don Slaught. Slaught’s vision was to create a tool where kids and coaches could communicate and easily identify flaws in the swing and pitching motion. He felt strongly, that the only way to do this was with models of Major League Baseball players and professional softball players. Don went to Major League Baseball and in the end…, they agreed that kids and coaches needed models to compare to.

Today, RightView Pro is the only video analysis software company licensed by MLB, MLB Player’s Association and the National Pro Fastpitch League.

TubeMogul Announces Real-Time Buying of Video Ads Across Millions of Connected TVs

Tuesday, September 27th, 2011


Emeryville, CA (PRWEB) November 21, 2011

TubeMogul, a real-time media buying platform for video advertising, went live with new partnerships today that enable clients to seamlessly buy targeted video ads on connected TV applications. These applications are similar to smartphone applications, but are accessed via Internet-connected TVs or other Internet-enabled set-top devices.

Internet-connected TVs, long associated with niche cable cutters, are rapidly entering the mainstream with growth in online streaming via set-top boxes, gaming consoles and newer TVs that have built-in application marketplaces. Based on current trends, market research firm DisplaySearch predicts that 123 million Internet-connected TV units will be shipped annually worldwide by 2014. In addition, over 60% of connected households in the U.S. will use a TV app at least once a week, according to research from In-Stat.

The audience has clearly stated that it wants to watch its favorite shows on whatever screen is handy everything from the smallest smart phones to the biggest smart TVs. Advertisers that can figure out how to easily reach customers across all of those platforms have a huge advantage, said Jim Louderback, CEO of Revision3 and new media pioneer. TubeMoguls new service provides that easy and targeted access, with publishers still in control, into this gold-mine of audience opportunity.

By partnering with top publishers, developers and exchanges in the space, including AdRise and others, TubeMogul offers real-time buying of 15 and 30-second video ads across hundreds of top television applications. Content publishers available via TubeMoguls platform include traditional broadcasters and online media companies like Howcast and Revision3. These applications are available on Internet TVs from LG, Samsung and others as well as set-top devices and gaming consoles such as Boxee, Google TV, Sony PlayStation, Roku, Tivo and Nintendo Wii. The viewing experience is similar to a web-based pre-roll ad, with ads appearing before or during content. As always, marketers are in total control over context, hand-selecting which applications to advertise on.

Global targeting and measurement across many screens means more possibilities for branding than were ever before possible, says Rick Bashkoff, VP, Partnerships & Network Development at Howcast, which will be among the advertisers participating. It will be exciting to see not only what top brands and their agencies do with that data and but also how it benefits premium content development for distribution across all channels.

The results deliver the branding power of television with digital advertisings unique ability to customize, target and optimize all managed via TubeMoguls easy-to-use interface. By buying from a single platform, brand marketers and trading desks can not only set frequency targets across multiple screens, but also target and buy only certain viewers across devices by using third-party data or their own data. This creates seemingly endless possibilities, such as targeting viewers in the market for a truck and then customizing the ad creative based on the device. TubeMoguls measurement comes built-in, so marketers can quantify impact and optimize in real-time by ad placement and publisher.

“Everyone talks about moving TV dollars online, but what is really happening is the experiences are merging and cable companies are slowly losing their grip on content distribution, said Brett Wilson, CEO of TubeMogul. “With these integrations, TubeMogul is giving advertisers an easy way to target across all devices in a context where publishers are still in control.

Blackberry video conversion, how to make best settings and convert step by step

Wednesday, June 30th, 2010

 

I have got a Blackberry Storm as my birthday present and I was deeply in love with the gorgeous screen. I can’t wait to fill the 8gb card with videos to show off to all my friends. Before that I have tried watching a movie on my blackberry that I had already ripped with iPhone/iPod touch settings, The video works but the file size is unnecessarily large and the audio didn’t match up with the video well when playing on the Blackberry. I collect information here and there and at last get the problem solves. So below is the details shared here.

Output video format: mp4Output audio format: mp3

Video:Video Size/resolution: 480x320Video Bitrate: 1200kbps

Audio:Audio Bitrate: 64kbps Channels: 2 channels

Now if you have no idea what to do with that, then here are some simple instructions for you.

First you need a third-part software. I use Nidesoft program, probably the best Blackberry converter available. I download from its official website: Nidesoft. Note: the program you downloaded on nidesoft is free trial version, you are limited to creating video files that are a maximum of 2 minutes long.In order to convert videos longer than that, you will need to purchase the software with 25 dollars, or download the full version somewhere on google.com

Then if you convert videos from DVD, you should use Nidesoft DVD to Blackberry Converter and follow the step-by-step ways.Step 1: Launch the program; Insert the DVD disc into the DVD Drive. Click the “Open DVD” button, browse your computer, find the DVD folder of the movie, open it, select some titles and chapters you want or you may select the whole video to convert.Step 2: make settings: click “profile” drop-down list to select “BlackBerry MPEG-4 Video (*.mp4)” format, click “Settings” to set video size and bitrate. If you want to combine two or several titles into one, you may select titles and click blank box before “Merge into one file” to merge them together.Step 3: click “convert” button to convert videos. Then it will be completed in few minutes.

However, if you convert from other videos, you should use Nidesoft Blackberry video converter with the following ways.Step 1: Launch the program and Click “Add” button to load source video files to be converted: Step 2: make settings: click “format” drop list to select “Blackberry MPEG-4 Video (*.mp4)” as output video format. Set your video size and quality under the preview window.

Step 3:  Click “Convert” button to start to convert video format.After the file is converted, just transfer the file to the videos folder on your BlackBerry through the Desktop Manager and enjoy your newly created video. By the way, the file converted can not only used on Blackberry Storm, but also other Blackberry phones such as Blackberry Pearl, Bold, curve.

Ok, until now you have got the whole idea of how to do with it. But you may encounter some other problems when doing it. Below are my problems and solutions I have collected after long time practice, list here to share with you.

I think there’s a virus in this Program!!??There’s no virus in Nidesoft. One person reported being infected by Backdoor.Graybird, but if you got it from the site I linked to in my post it did not come with the download. If you downloaded it from somewhere else on the web then I am not sure. Probably malware/spamers have uploaded it to phishing sites to snag people. Always make sure you download things from their original website, or from a trusted location like download.com, and always run antivirus and scan stuff you are installing.The higher the resolution, the better the video quality?Not necessarily at all. If you’re converting a video that is 640×480 and convert it to the same 640×480 resolution then all you’re leaving is more work for your phone. I understand the login behind it, the pixels get compressed and shop up more clear and sharper. But if you compress these pixels in the conversion process wouldn’t the same thing happen? So why not just convert straight to a 480×320 and save your Storm the trouble?

The higher the bitrate, the better the quality?Yes, that is true. However, the higher the bitrate, the larger your video files. So it is not necessary to raise your bitrate very high when you feel your video quality is fine. I have spent hours working different settings and the best results have hovered around 1200 kbps.

Where do I find the files?                                                                                            You may change the output directory by press “browse” button, or the destination will be set automatically at C:\temp, you may press “open” to find the files.

Can I get ringtones into my Blackberry with the above idea?Yes, you can. You may get ringtones in that way both from DVD and video. But you need to make a little different settings. As Blackberry audio support .mp3 format, you need to select “Blackberry MP3 Music (*.mp3)” as the output file format. Then drag the converted file into ringtones folder in your memory card.

I’m trying to convert a movie purchased from itunes but the Nidesoft software gives me an error. When I view the details of the error it tells me not enough space on my drive. I have plenty of space. Now when I tried it with a movie (same extension .m4v) that was ripped in the past, it works. Any suggestions??Meet DRM.Itunes store video files are encoded with fairplay digital rights management that means they will only play on Itunes, Ipod, or AppleTV. I have found another thread to solve this problem, go to: http://forums.crackberry.com/f135/howto-put-drm-protected-files-your-storm-pics-118585/

Why are there black bars on my video?Even though it looks “widescreen” the storm is native 4:3 not 16:9. So unless you want to stretch everybody and make them tall and skinny you will still have the black bars.

Is there a way to make it fullscreen without the black bars?Yes, you can crop the file when you do the transcode, but I haven’t done it with Nidesoft Blackberry video converter yet. I’ll post it when I figure it out.

Ok, that is my details and I would keep updating my thread when got more solutions.
