—iPlayer series stacking: Series stacking, one of the proposed features the BBC Trust ordered to be scaled back last year, will go live on September 13. The feature will make all episodes in a programme series available online, even outside the seven-day window, as long as the series is on-air. But the trust’s stipulation that the feature should apply to just 15 percent of BBC shows means only some shows will benefit. The quota will be averaged over a year and reviewed after two years. Stacking comes first to the web iPlayer, later to the app and to Virgin Media (NSDQ: VMED) cable. Release.

—ITN/Bebo: The news agency’s increasingly busy ITN On multimedia unit is adding Game On, its new games video show for Cranberry Publishing’s Gamerzines.com, to Bebo via the social net’s OpenMedia platform. The 90-second news burst launched in July, but further syndication is the name of the game.

—BBC Local video: The main Newspaper Society has already made its opposition clear, but now the Scottish Daily Newspaper Society has joined the chorus of private-sector fury vented toward the BBC’s £68 million local video news plans.

—Veoh for Europe: Online TV aggregator Veoh, whose content is blocked in many countries outside the US, is planning a bigger European focus this year. Speaking to CEO Steve Mitgang, eMarket analyst Karin von Abrahms said “the latter half of 2008 will bring a more concerted push into the UK, with other European markets to follow”. Mitgang boasted: “There will be far more to watch at Veoh than at the website of any single broadcaster, even the BBC.” But as von Abrahms points out: “VeohTV has very little to set against the vast range of compelling content owned by the BBC or the UK’s other major networks.”
