YouTube TV won the first ever Technical Emmy Award for its ‘View’ feature suite that allows users to access sports highlights, key plays, player stats and game scores. TechCrunch reports: At the 74th Annual Technology & Engineering Emmy Awards held last night, YouTube TV was declared the winner in the “AI-ML Curation of Sports Highlights” category. The company also announced today that Key Plays has reached a notable milestone. This feature has been used by him in over 10 million viewing sessions on the platform. Last year, viewers used key plays the most in his Cup at Worlds, his NFL games in the regular season, and Premier League games.
The Key Plays view keeps track of key plays in your game. Users can tap play to rewatch when it happens in the game. This is useful for users who missed the live game or want to catch up on key moments. When YouTube TV launched his 2018 view, only baseball, basketball, football, and hockey were available. Soccer and golf were added later. The set of features was also initially limited to phones and tablets. This feature is currently available within the YouTube TV app on smart TVs and mobile devices.
In addition to stats, key play, and score views, there is also a mobile-only feature, Fantasy Football View, which allows users to link their existing Fantasy Football accounts. So while a user is watching his NFL game on YouTube TV, the feature allows him to see how his team is performing in real time. In addition, there is a “jump” feature for quick access to the segments users want to watch, which is especially useful for tennis fans and users watching the Olympics. Kathryn Cochrane, YouTube TV’s group her project her manager, said in a blog post for her company: “We found that many of our viewers are avid sports fans, and when they watch sports, they don’t just watch it on the big screen. , we’re finding details like fantasy stats, football leagues, updates on other games, all to enhance what viewers were already watching.”
