Amazon Update Fire TV Get X-Ray Search
Recently, Amazon announced that Fire TV built-in X-Ray search function. That allows user This allows users to pull up actor lists, character bios, trivia, soundtracks, and other details while watching videos from Amazon Instant. Most of the data comes from the Internet Movie Database, which Amazon acquired 17 years ago.
Amazon puts a lot of time and energy into X-Ray across all platforms. Its computers can do some of the identification and time-coding, but every movie or TV show has some human touch as well—that’s why there are only about 100 titles a week added to X-Ray. It’s a lot of work for an ostensibly small feature, but Amazon sees it as a differentiator.
X-Ray search feature is only available to Kindle e-reader and Fire tablet. But now, we it begins appearing on the set-top box. When you watch Tv, there is no more "Who is that guy". Amazon can make pausing a video a fun experience.
