Herzliya, Israel - Jinni, the developer of a personalized recommendation system for online video, has raised $1.6 million in new financing, led by DFJ Tamir Fishman Ventures, PaidContent reported.

Founded in 2007, Israel-based Jinni's "Taste Engine" provides recommendations based on analyzing a user's preferences.

The company is also developing a "Movie Genome," similar to the "music genome" developed by music streaming service Pandora, that uses semantic technology to determine the "mood" of a video and classify it accordingly.

The company previously raised $1 million last year from Start-Up Factory.
