*Preliminary Results Summary of the Video Deep Dive Survey
**The survey received a total of 224 responses. 
**The blog post on The Signal was the most popular means to get the word out (27%) followed by the AMIA list (13%) and the NDSA-ALL list (11%). 
**A significant number of respondents (25%) were directed to the survey through other tools including Twitter, Facebook, PrestoCenter **Newsletter and the specially-designed bookmarks distributed at the DP14 meeting.
**The vast majority of respondent who identified their affiliation were from the United States; other countries represented include Germany, **Austria, England, South Africa, Australia, Canada, Denmark and Chile.
**The survey identified these as the top five stumbling blocks in preserving video:
***Getting funding resources to start preserving video (e.g., in-house equipment and systems, staff, outsourced work) (18%)
***Adequate digital storage capacity that can accommodate video master files (14%)
***Locating technical guidance on video file formats in which you have sufficient confidence, whether standards or best practices (11%)
***'''Repository services that facilitate active management of video (e.g., ingest, security, monitoring, fixity checks) (10%)'''
***'''Knowing where to start with video preservation (9%)'''
**Lower ranking issues include
***Uncertainty regarding intellectual property issues as they relate to video preservation (2.5%)
***Uncertainty regarding intellectual property issues as they relate to video access (2.5%)
***Identifying or implementing technology for provisioning video access (e.g., streaming) (1.5%)
**Issues reported as Solved at specific institutions include
***'''Knowing where to start with video preservation (44%)''' Note that this was also listed as a Top 5 issue. This polarity is perhaps explained by the range of communities answering the survey. More mature programs are well on their way while emerging programs are looking for resources.
***'''Getting management buy-in to start preserving video (41%)'''
***Locating sufficient video technical expertise, whether on staff or as an outside resource (22%)
**'''Respondents report that analog/physical media is the most challenging type of video (73%)''' followed by born digital (42%) and digital on physical media (34%).
