  • Search engines cannot really "see" video to understand what it is about any  more than they can see images. Instead, to really understand what images or  videos are about, they tend to look at metadata -- text about the video that is  either embedded within the video file or surrounding where the video is placed  on a page.
  • Metadata might only be a few hundred words long, at most. In contrast, the  video itself might contain thousands of spoken words. So why not make video  search better by capturing those words
