This paper reports the results of a qualitative case study amongst eight Dutch broadcast professionals who frequently use the online search system of the The Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision. The study is based on the assumption that the task affects the search strategy. Test subjects are observed and interviewed while following a scenario with tasks designed around three factors: nature of the content (audio or video), length and time restraints. Results show that the task does not affect the search strategies of the test persons and that the search strategies differs between test persons, not between tasks.
