But anyways - Channelography is v cool btw! And suits my current work too ... I've been adding richness to some demo entries on wikipedia, eg. today I added a hyperlinked abstract to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Marr's_The_Making_of_Modern_Britain ie. links to people, places etc mentioned in the topic. Now seeing if I can auto-extract those topics from wikipedia. Seems feasible:http://pastebin.com/f86b3669 So you might imagine a nice iplayerish-addon that compared those topics (and indicative phrases for them) with the subtitle .srt track, if only there was an official API for it. I know I can use get_iplayer but I'm not sure how OK that is... I was doing this on an investigation of the idea that media centre XMPP APIs will let us pause and tag segments of the show; and if the player gives us a dbpedia/wikipedia link, then a smartphone EPG can poke around and suggest appropriate tags for the segment. Plausible? The frontpage link to http://channelography.rattlecentral.com/entities is broken right now btw. I look forward to seeing the data though :) cheers, Dan - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
