Estimating the term…
A “music video parser” automatically detects and segments music videos in a combined audio-video media stream. Automatic detection and segmentation is achieved by integrating shot boundary detection, video text detection and audio analysis to automatically detect temporal boundaries of each music video in the media stream. In one embodiment, song identification information, such as, for example, a song name, artist name, album name, etc., is automatically extracted from the media stream using video optical character recognition (OCR). This information is then used in alternate embodiments for cataloging, indexing and selecting particular music videos, and in maintaining statistics such as the times particular music videos were played, and the number of times each music video was played.
