A massive fan of K-POP? Love K-drama, but are the terrible subtitles or the lack of subtitles becoming a constant hindrance? Blockchain has helped various industries with its solutions, and well, it has come to the rescue in this department as well with SmartPlay!

SmartPlay is a blockchain-based video content smart sharing platform based on providing high security and high compatibility with video and subtitling. Their primary objective is to supply Korean and Asian video content to overseas media platforms in India, Southeast Asia, and also IQIYI and Tencent Video in China, all under the brand ‘PlayT’.

Translations are an essential part of any foreign content that we consume as they are reflecting different cultures and representing it across borders is of great significance for a person to thoroughly enjoy the content displayed. But not much has been done in improving the current system of providing subtitles, and many times they are not translated correctly due to negligence on the whole’ subtitling of the video’ part.

This issue is what SmartPlay wishes to tackle via the Blockchain approach. A system that works towards evaluating and participating in subtitling or dubbing work of various contents such as video, sound source, and image by correct translation is what SmartPlay has built. This medium would thus ensure that people from all over the world can easily enjoy and share Korean and Asian content in SmartPlay.

SmartPlay is combining robust security and compatibility with blockchain users, and they will enjoy the ability to upload content and develop better subtitles/dubbing based on the Big Data collection technology. This medium will thus be the perfect platform where free content creation and consumption take place together and help in putting out the best content, with the best subtitles for the people.

If we talk about the most popular and just every large-scale video platforms out there today, they are mainly serving as a matching system. They recommend a video based on your search keywords. The primary issue that such a system has is that there is no necessary connection between what people watch and what their concern is.

Moreover, what such systems do is to cut down their work they analyze users’ access IP and provides the video content searched by users through the closest video server. Large-scale video platforms spent way too much on constructing servers to reduce the burden of data usable by users.

Therefore, it leads to a compulsion of watching advertisements, which are irrelevant at times before getting to the actual video. This is the path to gaining back the money spent. We keep complaining about these issues but have never really taken the initiative to explore other solutions and platforms.

PlayT focuses on making its platform more useful and much better for its customers. They focus on getting content providers to cover diverse themes, and deliver better quality, focus on getting advertisements that valuable and profitable to users.

The working of SmartPlay is as mentioned here. So to get started with uploading your video on SmartPlay, a separate service that supports this action is essential. Media API Services is the open streaming platform that can be used to upload your media, and once done, and there is a conversion process that makes your video distributable.

Once the data collection is completed through different routes runs is converted, they are stored within a cloud service so that their notifications can be directed to the streaming service when there are requests for distribution.

SmartPlay services are working towards the creation of a media platform that provides services simultaneously to both India and China. So how the streaming works is once a request to play a particular content through users and links, it makes use of global CDN to connect the data address to large-scale video services. It even supports the front end services providing streaming through large-scale services.

The advertisers on SmartPlay have the benefit of ensuring efficient and much more convenient advertisement distribution, unlike other social network services. AI and big data have made it possible to predict user preferences and analyzing diverse customers.

This information will, thus, can utilize for the placement of ads in preferred sections. So the platform enables the insertion of advertisements in a particular part of the video, which is not to the very start or end of the video. These inserted ads can be connected to any point when the video is on and is arranged in a way that it leads to the actual website of that product where it can be bought.
