  • receiving, at a remote server, a plurality of messages from a plurality of users, wherein each message identifies a play position within the media asset at which the respective one of the users paused the media asset;

    selecting a reference play position based on the play position identified by one of the plurality of messages;

    computing a number representing how many of the messages identify a play position that corresponds to the reference play position;

    in response to determining that the number exceeds a threshold, selecting a frame of the media asset that corresponds to the reference play position; and

    updating data associated with the media asset based on the selected frame.
