Metaphor Solutions has introduced SayMedia, a voice search application for various media on the iPhone (News - Alert).

 

This latest offering makes it possible to replace the need to type a media title, by allowing users to just say it - making it faster to input on the iPhone.

 

Users can either play the title or get other results instantly.

 

Officials said that by using SayMedia, users can also say the name of any U.S. television show or any English movie for recognition on the iPhone, and the application then presents users with a menu of options.

 

When it comes to TV shows, users can record that show on their TiVo (News - Alert) or get listings of search results from YouTube and view them. Officials said that the application also allows users to search for TV shows by time of day or by TV station.

 

Additionally for movies, users can add a movie to their NetFlix queue, find show times at local theatres and get theatre directions. In addition, users can also read all about the movie on the IMDB Web site, or view YouTube (News - Alert) results for the movie including any trailers.

 

Metaphor Solution is a voice-enabled mobile application and Web 2.0 interactive voice response (IVR) solution for enterprises. The company’s suite of Web-configurable speech recognition applications provides businesses with access to speech IVR solutions.

 

Last month, company also introduced SayNCall, an enhanced voice dialing application for the iPhone that uses a voice recognition engine to provide “unparalleled levels” of reliability and accuracy.
