Amsterdam, 2 March 2010 - Nedstat announces support for measuring Internet video on television by Stream Sense, the most accurate and comprehensive online video analytics application in the market. The release is a significant upgrade from the existing ability to measure usage of Internet on TV-sets.

 

New generation TV-sets with built-in ability to play Internet video are becoming increasingly popular among consumers. Content owners, publishers and advertisers require full insight into the consumption of content on this new platform, also in combination with other channels. Stream Sense already supports the new LG, Philips and Samsung TV-sets and support for other major manufacturers can be expected soon.

 

"Internet video on television is a new way of consuming content, mixing the lean-forward and lean-back experience", says Thomas Pottjegort, Senior Technical Architect at Nedstat who is leading the Stream Sense development team. "It is important for our customers to have insight into usage of this new and upcoming platform."

 

Michiel Berger, Chief Innovations at Nedstat says: "Media content is shifting to a variety of devices and consumers are increasingly getting used to on-demand video being available whenever and wherever they want. On their TV-sets in the living room or for example on the iPhone when they are on the move. We expect the Internet/TV integration to continue with interactive applications such as ‘social TV’ and more.”

 

Stream Sense has been developed by Nedstat in close cooperation with leading publishers of online streaming content. Powerful, real-time analytics report on visitor behaviour during video or audio streams whether on demand, progressive download or live and regardless of where the streams are hosted. Detailed insight is provided about how visitors interact with online video advertisements.

 

Stream Sense seamlessly integrates with Sitestat web analytics, allowing for reports on the interaction before, during and after the stream.

 

Nedstat was awarded the Streaming Media European Readers' Choice Award 2009 for its Stream Sense product in the category 'Reporting and Analytics'.
