ABSTRACT:
Techniques are described for selecting and displaying specific content elements from within content of a media asset, such that the content elements may be displayed within a reserved portion of a user display, thereby providing a visual summary of the media asset content. The content elements may be provided along with a graphical representation of the content elements indicating, for example, their importance within the media asset relative to one another and/or to a user preference. In this way, the user may quickly and easily assess his or her level of interest in the media asset.
