|
Unlike other media delivery programs and sites Odee! only offers streaming video you can watch right now. Instead of waiting for media to be downloaded, the experience is similar to switching Channels on TV. The faster your Broadband connection is, the more seamless is the switch. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Point-and-click access to all functions. Large buttons and text. Minimum amount of functions. Three pane interface. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Simply select a Channel from the Channel List, then select an Item from the Item List. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
We do all the work to find Quality Channels for you. These are constantly monitored for new additions, bad links or poor performance and updated automatically. Majority of Channels are free, a few require registration. Premium (paid content) Channels are included so that Odee! can be your convenient single access point. Channels are obtained directly from RSS video feeds, Vodcasts and directly from Web Pages, so no content is left out. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
All the top Video search engines - YouTube, Blinkx, Google, Truveo, SingingFish, Yahoo, AOL etc. are just a click away. Results are integrated into the Odee! item list or viewable as a results page. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Because Odee! is designed to work with the content owner's site you have full access to the viewing options available. You can view media in the original size or use player options to zoom. The web page can be shown full screen by Odee! and the media can also be transferred to one of the mini multi-screens, | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Four independent mini screens can run simultaneously with the main media window. You can use these to bookmark videos for later viewing, multi-angle feeds, live monitoring, pause and replay, etc. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Odee! primarily acts as a Browser window for Feed and Site content, based on Internet Explorer - so anything you can view in IE you will see in Odee! Additionally Odee! has it's own generic players for media files as well as the 4 mini screens which use activex players. Popular formats include Windows Media, RealPlayer, Quicktime, Flash and Shockwave. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Because Odee! is basically a browser and to respect content owner's rights and also to afford you full access to all the best content, Odee!'s main display option is media in it's original layout. Multimedia content can include additional links and displays (as well as advertising) synchronized to presentations. Additionally, links to similar content may be provided on pages. You have the option to extract media to a mini multiscreen and, where Feed links lead directly to media Odee! can show it in it's generic media player. Odee! is designed to make finding content and switching between content easier, not to avoid content owner's original intent. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
The hundreds of Channels built into Odee! (and constantly being updated) are categorised into popular groups which can be accessed by tag or keywords or source or words in accompanying commentaries - but you can simply scroll through the Channel List or the Guide or your Playlists or use Guide Channel Numbers to access content quickly. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
You can organise individual items or entire channels into Playlists.Use these to bookmark favourite items or to schedule programming on a regular basis. You can download or paste in playlists from others or download them from the public playlists submitted to Odee! online. You can also submit your playlists for others to use by uploading to Odee! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
We have provided ratings and commentary on content for some Channels to describe both what to expect in terms of subject matter and quality, as well as access issues such as load time and link navigation. This is somewhat arbitrary and basically depends on when we get around to it! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
You can rate channels yourself for personal use or share them via the Odee! site with others. Become a Channel Guru! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Along with simply sharing playlists for later use you can create your own Channel for others to follow live as you make it. Become a VJ for popular content! Or run a specialist Channel for a particular interest area. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Alternatively share your favourites or hot content with friends through built-in email, blog upload and RSS Feed creation links. Simply share the latest funny viral, or create a vlog driven by content you discover with Odee! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Most video search engines are like their text counterparts, they respond to queries with a few relevant links and an overwhelming amount of rubbish! With Odee! you can target your search to sources you know will contain appropriate results. It may take a little longer to search but you'll get quality answers a lot quicker! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
You can search for additional items in the same or other Channels, transfer items or Channels to Playlists for later viewing, or preview media in any or all Multi-screen windows - all while the main video screen is playing. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
