The interMedia ORDVideo object type supports the storage and management of video data.
Digitized video consists of the video data (digitized bits) and the attributes that describe and characterize the video data. Video applications sometimes associate application-specific information, such as the description of the video training tape, date recorded, instructor's name, producer's name, and so forth, within the video data.
The video data can have different formats, compression types, frame rates, frame sizes, frame resolutions, playing times, compression types, number of colors, and bit rates depending upon how the video data was digitally recorded. Oracle interMedia ORDVideo can store and retrieve video data of any data format. Oracle interMedia ORDVideo can automatically extract metadata from video data of a variety of popular video formats. Oracle interMedia ORDVideo can also extract application attributes and store them in the comments attribute of the object in XML form identical to what is provided by the interMedia Annotator utility.
For a complete description of this package within the context of Oracle interMedia, see ORDVideo in the Oracle interMedia Reference.
