blinkx and Dogwoof Create Film Channel on BBTV, Delivering Top Independent Films in High-Quality, On-Demand and with Unique Interactive Features

blinkx, the world´s largest and most advanced video search engine,
and Dogwoof, a leading U.K. film distributor specializing in
independent films and world cinema, have joined forces to create a
film channel on blinkx BBTV.

The film channel will be available on blinkx´s broadband
television, blinkx BBTV, which is a small download (0.5 MB) available
free of charge at www.blinkx.com and www.dogwoof.com.

"The film industry is screaming out for a multi-layered film
channel, run by professional distributors that know how to promote a
film, and look after everyone´s interests. This channel will be a
filter for both the consumer and the rights holders, offering films
from the best film producers worldwide," said Andy Whittaker, founder
and CEO of Dogwoof.

"Ultimately it´s all about the customer experience, so joining
forces with a leading technical partner as blinkx, is key to the
success of this new film channel. We are lining up some outstanding
films that will surprise and seduce our customers, and most
importantly, keep them coming back," continues Whittaker.

The initiative is a significant advance in online video which
leverages blinkx´s patented speech and visual recognition technology
to simultaneously deliver top independent films over the Internet, and
link them to the universe of information on the Web, adding dimension
and context to the viewing experience.

"By fusing films brought by Dogwoof with the Web itself, blinkx
BBTV enables users to instantly browse or interact with online sources
related to the movies they are watching, whether it´s Google,
Wikipedia, IMDB or other Web sites offering additional information,"
said Suranga Chandratillake, founder and CEO of blinkx.

blinkx´s patented video indexing automatically creates a speech
track of the films, making it easy for viewers to navigate the content
literally word-for-word, and jump to specific points in a movie,
simply by searching for a specific spoken word or name.

While watching Dogwoof´s film channel on blinkx BBTV, viewers can
instantly access other features, never possible before - including
transcripts of the audio track and background information on
everything from actors, to characters, to reviews and locations of the
film. Alternatively, users can opt to sit back and watch the movie
full-screen, on-demand and in TV quality.

With hybrid peer-to-peer streaming and a simple, point-and-click
channel interface, the film channel on blinkx BBTV offers a new kind
of online viewing experience for independent film fans: full-screen,
TV-quality and truly immersed in the Internet.
