Selection and Display of Differentiating Key Frames for Similar Videos

A computer program product for selecting and displaying keyframes for multiple video files, the computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable storage medium having program code embodied therewith, the program code readable and executable by a processor to perform a method comprising:

• receiving a first set of keyframes for a first video file, wherein a keyframe is a frame from a video file;
• receiving a second set of keyframes for a second video file;
• comparing the first set of keyframes to the second set of keyframes;
• in response to determining that a keyframe from the first set of keyframes and a keyframe from the second set of keyframes are a duplicate keyframe, selecting a new keyframe for the second video file;
• displaying the duplicate keyframe on a graphical user interface (GUI) to represent the first video file;
• and
• displaying the new keyframe on the GUI to represent the second video file.

A computer system comprising:

• a processor, a computer readable memory, and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium;
• first program instructions to receive a first set of keyframes for a first video file, wherein a keyframe is a frame from a video file;
• second program instructions to receive a second set of keyframes for a second video file;
• third program instructions to compare the first set of keyframes to the second set of keyframes;
• fourth program instructions to, in response to determining that a keyframe from the first set of keyframes and a keyframe from the second set of keyframes are a duplicate keyframe, select a new keyframe for the second video file;
• fifth program instructions to display the duplicate keyframe on a graphical user interface (GUI) to represent the first video file;
• and
• sixth program instructions to display the new keyframe on the GUI to represent the second video file;
• and wherein
• the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth program instructions are stored on the non-transitory computer readable storage medium for execution by one or more processors via the computer readable memory.
