Explore Use of Videos as a Data Source

[arsalanmubeen]

Description:

We want to explore integrating Azure Video Indexer into the project to extract structured data from video content. This tool can analyze video files and provide insights such as:

• Speech-to-text (transcription)
• OCR (text from images and scenes)
• Face and speaker identification
• Object and brand detection
• Scene segmentation and sentiment analysis
• Keyword and metadata tagging

Key Questions:

• Can Azure Video Indexer outputs be used as a reliable data source?
• What types of metadata and structured content can we extract?
• How can we automate the ingestion of videos and retrieval of insights?
• What are the storage and processing requirements?

Acceptance Criteria:

• Confirm feasibility of using Azure Video Indexer for our video analysis needs.
• List supported video formats and output formats (JSON, transcript, etc.).
• Document a basic flow or API usage for uploading and indexing a video.
• Provide a sample output that we can map to our data pipeline.
