Omkiran Sharma, Head of Video Engineering at Rakuten Viki discusses Viki's origin story and how their user-sourced subtitles led to explosive growth in the early years of their service. He also discusses their video "diff" process to share subtitles between multiple pieces of content that are slightly different from one market to another.
