The processing of video formats in Octopus is just as versatile and powerful as the processing of audio formats. Here is an overview of how Octopus processes video formats:

1. Supported video formats
   Octopus supports common video formats such as MP4, AVI and others. These formats can be imported into the platform in order to use them for various applications.
2. Processing steps
   • Extraction of audio and text:
     Octopus can extract the audio part of a video and convert it into text using speech recognition (speech-to-text). This enables the transcription of spoken content in the video.
   • Image and video description:
     The platform can analyse and describe images or scenes from videos. This is particularly useful for creating accessible content or supporting image databases.
   • Semantic enrichment:
     As with audio processing, Octopus can semantically enrich the extracted text or metadata of the video. This includes the identification of key terms, the addition of metadata and optimisation for specific applications.
   • Subtitle generation:
     Octopus can automatically generate subtitles for videos based on speech recognition and translation. This is ideal for localising videos in multiple languages.
   • Format conversion:
     The platform enables the conversion of videos into other formats or the extraction of content into standardised formats such as XML.
3. Output formats
   After processing, the results can be exported in various formats, e.g. as subtitle files (SRT), text documents, XML structures or directly into edited video files.
4. Areas of application
   • Creation of subtitles and translations for videos
   • Analysing video content for marketing or research
   • Accessibility through image and video descriptions
   • Integration of video content in document management systems
