Protect your content notion

[rooty]

This is a completely random idea... If i had the time to write the code i would have...

as you all know piracy content... especially among tube sites... has always been a pain in the ass...

if only someone can write the following

server: download and generate database from the freely available content on most content sites(tubes).... hold database containing hashes to several thumbnails to the content it checked already (this can be applied to photos and videos)

client: extract hashes to content snippets.. and submit to server to see if there is any matches.... the server can also keep the past submitted hashes to run against new content added to the database.

so for example we take a video clip... the name and file md5 hash is irrelevant.. as most thieves change the file names and add watermarks... but surely its posible to extract regions in a thumbnail... like (mid-left +20 px) etc etc and with these create a hash based on the smaller thumbnail extracted from the bigger thumbnail... all based on seconds in the video to a proximity.

who ever have the time to experiment on the idea... it should be a long journey to figure out a properly working algorithm... but it would be do-able.


the one that writes this app can make a fair bit of money one could imagine....

people do like free porns via mail... and anyone not doing email marketing is loosing out on a big chunk $$$

I dont quite understand what your point is, OP, but this is my stance. I take a lot of time to combine, add to and then compress sponsor content vids and pics for showcasing sponsors. I consider my work GPL, and as long as the website owner is promoting the paysite the vid was made for with the video and not stealing my bandwidth, I don't care if they rip my videos for their own use.

Rooty, I was poking fun at you because it's horrifying that someone with such horrid text writing skills is creating newsletters. Frankly, I could barely follow your original post.

One would assume that his target audience is those who actually own content -- not affiliates.

I think it's a pretty good idea but would it scan and score the whole video to match it with the original. Or just the thumbnails?

This basically is to eliminate human beings from having to do it right?

I'm pretty sure youtube is doing this with audio for copyrighted music right now.

indeed.. but quite a few affiliates here that is brilliant coders and always can do with extra $$$ thus me mentioning it as a notion

thats a brilliant idea... hash video content with its audio stream... and the song recognition programming sounds allot better.

Might have to do it over a longer period of time though as the OOOH and AAAAH's might hit more than miss.
