1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- displaying a menu arranged in an interface environment, the menu comprising a list of menu items, each of the menu items associated with corresponding video content;
in response to a first user input that causes one of the displayed menu items to be highlighted;
highlighting the menu item;
displaying in the interface environment and proximate to the menu only a first abstraction of the highlighted menu item, the first abstraction having a first size and being a first representation of the video content associated with the highlighted menu item;
determining that the highlighted menu item has been highlighted for a predetermined time period, and in response to the determination;
scaling the first abstraction to a second size different from the first size;
transitioning a second abstraction of the highlighted menu item into the interface environment proximate to the scaled first abstraction, the second abstraction only displayed with the scaled first abstraction and being a second representation of the video content associated with the highlighted menu item; and
in response to a second user input being a selection of a highlighted menu item, presenting the video content associated with the highlighted menu item.

14. One or more computer non-transistory readable media storing instructions that are executable by a processing device, and upon such execution cause the processing device to perform operations comprising:
-
generating a interface environment comprising a menu, the menu comprising a plurality of menu items, each of the menu items associated with corresponding video content; in response to a first user input that causes one of the displayed menu items to be highlighted;
highlighting the menu item;displaying in the interface environment and proximate to the menu only a first abstraction of the highlighted menu item, the first abstraction having a first size and being a first representation of the video content associated with the highlighted menu item; determining that the highlighted menu item has been highlighted for a predetermined time period, and in response to the determination; scaling the first abstraction to a second size different from the first size; and transitioning a second abstraction of the highlighted menu item into the interface environment proximate to the scaled first abstraction, the second abstraction being a second representation of the video content associated with the highlighted menu item and only being displayed with the scaled first abstraction; and in response to a second user input being a selection of a highlighted menu item, presenting the video content associated with the highlighted menu item. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)
