hello
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
i am glad to hear from you
Elcool says:
you sent me those emails, and i'm interested in more infromation
Elcool says:
as i didn't quite get what you wanted me to do
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
we are an under the radar company building a video collection service with unique software
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
our software can act like a digital recorder for web 2.0 stuff like flash, google maps, games, etc.
Elcool says:
what do you mean "under the radar"?
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
We are not marketing the company yet
Elcool says:
oh
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
we spent three years R&D building our smart software and the last year building our consumer media collection service
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
the software has a lot of smarts to recognize and make exact digital copies of web media.
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
I found you through the Weird Al links. We have people using our service and software to build digital copies of Weird Al videos.
Elcool says:
aren't most web media already digital?
Elcool says:
i mean, it's online and encoded in some way
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
yes the web media is digital but there is no tool to capture the media as it is. Most people hassle with converting it to files, etc.
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
with our free service you can build a library of web media with full interactive capabilities.
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
you can record google maps with drill-downs, flash games with interaction, videos with the metadata describing the content, etc.
Elcool says:
are you infact saying you're making a program that can play.. everything?
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
you drag and drop the web media content into a library.
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
yes. it is a universal digital recorder that plays embedded players.
Elcool says:
then i think that you'l have some copyright issues
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
it runs on your PC as a personal service. It fall under fair use laws just like VCR.
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
we dont do anything on the server side
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
we had Silicon Valley lawyers check everything out. the server guys doing any conversions can be shut down
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
we dont do conversions. the software records a personal digital copy just like recording from a tv
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
our sharing model is simply to IM or email a link to the original source to a friend and they can make their own personal digital copy.
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
completely legal which is the way we want to keep it
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
our web site posts public content from other sites. they police the content and can pull it.
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
however, many people are using the software to quickly record stuff that may get pulled off the web
Elcool says:
when i was on your site i saw alot of videos labeled "from YouTube"
Elcool says:
did you get premmission from each and every one of them?
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
youtube is one source. we only post public videos with the right to embed on other sites. we screen videos not categorized that way
Reynaldo Gil - Voyager Mission says:
we are building collections based on global consumer demand rather than personal opinions like many social video sharing sites
