PLYmedia is start up that does something i have wanted to see in terms of online video from the beginning of the decade where video streaming finally got something that you could do without a problem. the need for it only grew with the arrival of YouTube and start of modern video embeddables. PLYmedia does subtitles, closed captioning and info overlays for video embeddables by providing a layer of information that can work with the common embed code of flash video embeddables. this way. you can embed a video with a subPLY layer and it will instantly serve the kind of overlay specific to that video.no matter if it is a youtube video. it can be subtitles, closed captioning and of course info overlays. the third is something that can offer extra information related to the video or other kind of information like advertising. this also means it can give you in video linking.
This is a very simplistic rundown but what makes it such a good thing is that it can give out much more than what i just originally wanted and easily evolve into the future.i would not be surprised if they suddenly had a Silverlight solution too. i am sure i will end up doing a post on each of their offerings. it is really that good.
