Title
LiveWatch: The interactive live casting system
Abstract
This paper proposes a viewer support service in which user-initiative value is added to livecasting programs, including livecasting with real-time properties such as sportscasting. For example, a viewer support service in which the desired scene is provided on the basis of user settings is realized by using live information, consisting of the scene descriptions in livecasting, corresponding to the meta-data of the video. In the LiveWatch system, the live information is input quickly and precisely by a manual procedure using an input support tool. The user application service is realized by aligning the video distribution to the live information, which involves delaying the distribution slightly. User applications, which differ for each type of casting and service, can be constructed in a simple way by using a newly developed authoring system. This paper describes the architecture of the LiveWatch system and reports the results of testing of a notification service using LiveWatch in an Internet netcasting experiment. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
