1. A method comprising:
- generating program metadata from recorded video content, the program metadata comprising one or more key-frames from one or more corresponding shots;
identifying an objectively representative key-frame from the key-frames as a function of shot duration and frequency of appearance of key-frame content across multiple shots, the objectively representative key-frame being an image frame representative of the recorded video content; and
creating a thumbnail from the objectively representative key-frame.

Abstract
Systems and methods for smart media content thumbnail extraction are described. In one aspect program metadata is generated from recorded video content. The program metadata includes one or more key-frames from one or more corresponding shots. An objectively representative key-frame is identified from among the key-frames as a function of shot duration and frequency of appearance of key-frame content across multiple shots. The objectively representative key-frame is an image frame representative of the recorded video content. A thumbnail is created from the objectively representative key-frame.
