Lumerias.com Launches Video Search Engine

DUISBURG, Germany — Internet portal operator Clipland announced Wednesday the launch of it new video search engine Lumerias.com.

Tagged as a “plain, old-fashioned video search,” the site offers users newly developed technology to navigate and search video content on the web.

The system processes all major video formats including WindowsMedia, QuickTime and Flash, enabling users to find videos from all major social video sites and various sources.

Not a meta-search engine, according to the company, the site is powered with original technology developed specifically for the task of processing video data. The search engine’s database is the result of continuous webcrawls and holds more than 2 million searchable videos in its current phase.

“Search engines like ours use a technology called ‘web crawler,’ ‘web spider’ or ‘robot’ to scour the web and discover new content,” Lumerias.com said. “Our particular robot is specialized in indexing video content. It reads and interprets all major video standards, can parse M3U, SMIL, ASX, PLS and XSPF playlists and extracts meta-data as well as context information.”

The company hopes to hold more than 10 million searchable videos in its next phase and said its development team is working with algorithms to automatically make sense of the indexed videos' image data and to transcribe their content, in order to supplement the engine’s index.

The growing amount of video content on the web has instigated search engine sites like Lumerias.com, as well as competitors Blinkx.com and AltaVista.com.

Clipland.com, the company’s main site, has been online since 1998, specializing in “short form media” services for amateurs and professionals in video and filmmaking.
