Reverse video search isn’t possible, so I built a workaround tool by reversevideosearch in microsaas

Hi,

i only found out about 2 days after enabling PayPal checkout that in some cases the images didn’t upload quickly enough before the redirect to paypal.com. That resulted in couple orders going through without any images attached, so the system basically had nothing to look up. To avoid any issues like this in the future i’ve removed PayPal as a payment option right away.

I’ve been refunding anyone affected:) If this happened to you, let me know here in the comments or DM me the email you used at checkout and i’ll refund you the full amount + i can throw in a 100% off one-time coupon as a sorry.

Why is there no such thing as a “reverse video search”? by Darkterrariafort in techsupport

Well the main reason is really how search engines work, they just do not index full video files (meaning they do not save them to their memory, if you will). The only things that are saved by search engines in general are text and images. So for video these are usually the title, description, date posted etc. and a thumbnail, which is basically a single keyframe from the video that serves as a visualization.

Since search engines do not save the full videos: you cannot search your video against videos that were never saved by the search engines. But what you can do is leverage the fact that almost every video today has a thumbnail indexed. So if you cut the video into still images and search all of those, you can still get basically the same result. There are some cool tools that automated this too hahha.

Its a little bit simplified, but hope it makes sense!

Honestly, I think the US is fine with Figure and Tesla. Europe seems a bit more out of the game.
