The World of Broadcast Content

Content. We encounter it across all media and it comprises a wide variety of forms: text, images, music, spoken audio, video and much more. Entire industries rely on the production, processing and use of content. What always has to be considered: the corresponding licenses. While these are relatively clearly regulated for graphics and other purchasable content, a cloud of ambiguity hovers over TV and radio content. This is over now: from now on you can simply license the broadcast clips you need via the CL Hub and use them worry-free. Receiving the original material from content creators, we can provide playout in the quality you need - in terms of quality you can choose between the original and small thumbnail sized video preview. For content creators, too, the user license via CL Hub makes it crystal clear who is using the content - and whether the corresponding rights are given.

How Does It Work?

Content is being uniquely identified using AI-enhanced 4D-fingerprinting. When a license for a specific clip is requested, the fingerprints are being calculated and matched with a database of source license material. If the copyright owner has submitted his terms of license, CL Hub computes the price for the license on-line and informs the user. Delivery is executed by link to an embeddable video player. The embeddable video player has the advantage of content being hosted on a CDN which allows quick playback of the content to a world-wide audience. What can be licensed: CL Hub has built a database of TV and radio content from all over the world. By this broadcast content we mean specific works like movies, series, music titles, but also advertisements, editorial content, news shows, documentaries. CL Hub has up-to-date content fed from the largest pools of broadcast capture stations. CL Hub is working with the major copyright holders. To make it easy to identify licensed content, both the downloadable clip as well as the video player shows a CL Hub lincensing symbol. The green license stamp indicates that content has been licensed via CL Hub, an orange stamp marks content that is licensed by third parties and a red stamp shows that the according clip is not licensed.



A mark clearly indicates if a piece of content is licensed.
