ABSTRACT:
A method of generating a visual program summary is disclosed for a multiple source video feed. In the disclosed method, a computing device continuously captures frames from a set of available video feeds such as television channels. The computing device analyzes the captured video frames to remove redundant frames. The computing device then selects a set of frames to generate a visual program summary. The selected frames are composited together to generate a visual program summary.
