Provided are a processing method, a terminal device, and a medium. The method includes the steps described below. Basic information of a target video is determined; attribute information of the target video is determined based on the basic information; in a case where the attribute information indicates that the target video is a video capable of being structured, chapter division is performed on the target video based on the basic information to obtain at least two video clips; and chapter description information of the at least two video clips, a key frame of the at least two video clips and video description information of the target video are determined.

Systems and methods are provided for displaying personalized preview images during trick-play operations of a media asset based on user profile data and an importance of frames of the media asset. A request from a user to move a slider of a progress bar associated with a media asset is received while the media asset is being generated for display. A scene from the media asset that contains a play position indicated by the slider is identified and a frame that best matches user profile data of the user and importance data for the scene is identified. The identified frame is generated for display as an overlay over the displayed media asset.

Systems and methods for addressing a corrupted segment in a media asset. The media guidance application determines that a segment of a media asset is corrupted. The media guidance application determines whether a retrieval period to retrieve an uncorrupted copy of the segment exceeds a threshold period. If the retrieval period does not exceed the threshold period, the media guidance application retrieves and generates for display the uncorrupted copy of the segment. If the retrieval period exceeds the threshold period, the media guidance application determines whether an importance level of the corrupted segment exceeds a threshold level. If the importance level exceeds the threshold level, the media guidance application generates for display a summary for the corrupted segment. If the importance level does not exceed the threshold level, the media guidance application generates for display the subsequent segment and the summary for the corrupted segment in an overlay.

A method for providing multi-part persistent content includes requesting a content item from a content server, and receiving a first portion of a multi-part content item. The first portion of the multi-part content item is displayed to a user of the client device via a first application executed by the client device. The method also includes providing an authentication token and an identification of a state of execution of the multi-part content item to the content server, and subsequently requesting a second content item, the request comprising the authentication token. The method also includes receiving a second portion of the multi-part content item, the second portion of the multi-part content item displayed to the user of the client device via a different, second application executed by the client device. The second portion is selected by the content server based on the state of execution of the multi-part content item.

One or more highlights of a video stream may be identified. The highlights may be segments of a video stream, such as a broadcast of a sporting event, that are of particular interest to one or more users. According to one method, at least a portion of the video stream may be stored. The portion of the video stream may be compared with templates of a template database to identify the one or more highlights. Each highlight may be a subset of the video stream that is deemed likely to match the one or more templates. The highlights, an identifier that identifies each of the highlights within the video stream, and/or metadata pertaining particularly to the one or more highlights may be stored to facilitate playback of the highlights for the users.

Provided are a video clipping and model training method, relating to the field of video technologies, and in particular, to the field of short video technologies. The video clipping method includes: acquiring interaction behavior data for an original video file; determining interaction heat at respective time points of the original video file, according to the interaction behavior data; selecting N time points with highest interaction heat, to take the selected time points as interest points of the original video file, where N is a positive integer; and clipping the original video file based on the respective interest points, to obtain N clipped video files. Therefore, high-quality short video files can be generated.

An apparatus and method for generating a video record using audio is presented. The apparatus comprises at least a processor and a memory communicatively connected to the at least a processor. The memory contains instructions configuring the at least a processor to receive a user input from a user, select a set of record generation questions for the user as a function of the user input, transmit an audio question to the user as a function of the selected set of record generation questions, record a user response as a function of the audio question, and generate a video record as a function of the recorded user responses.

Systems, methods, and software for submitting video evidence. A request is received from a user of a security device to submit an identified video clip as video evidence to an agency, and the identified video clip and corresponding metadata is retrieved from a database of video clips. Additional information about content of the video clip is interactively collected from the owner and a digital signature is received from the owner. A video evidence file is generated to include the content of the identified video clip, information regarding capture of the video clip based upon the metadata, the additional information, and the digital signature. The video evidence file is then communicated to the agency.
