Mr. Pink: I very humbly suggest that you take a close look at DGV (Digital Lava)...and very quickly.messages.yahoo.com @m2.yahoo.com&mn=114&rmn=114&board=yahoo.b9.12.16304620&topicid=0m2&type=date&next=5Subject 25609 The technology is hot. DGV IPOd at a bad time, and didn't go anywhere. Now BW printed an article on them that just hit the newsstands, Microsoft and Silicon Graphics inked deals with DGV, and a slew of other positives have come out. Check out MIT_Geek's description of the technology on the Yahoo board to get a better feel for what the technology can do: "Vprism/VideoVisor digitizes video. I.E. any old video can be "downloaded" into your desktop. Then it re-purposes the video. This is basically a fancy term for getting the info ready to roll. It's really cool. You can drop and click your way thru navigating and analyzing the info, integrating text, adding weblinks... I might be losing you here, but the point is, its flexibility is awesome. Let's say I'm a lawyer with a stack of videotaped depositions and I want to find every time a witness uses the word "Monica". I download the video, do a search for "Monica", then basically cut and paste the finds into a file. Then let's say I know what's being said is directly contradicting in a well-reputed web site, I can add a link to that site. Then I could add an Excel chart showing how many times the witness has lied in the deposition, having it show up to the right of the video clips. I can add subtitle to the video showing what the witness said vs. what the truth is. Then I can send it off to the opposing attorneys, my assistant in Tacoma, or onto the internet. The possibilities are endless and it's so friggin easy. The normal problems of compatibility and standardization associated with new technologies do not exist here, thanks to Bill Gates and also to the killer Tempolink open architecture core technology that DGV uses."
