Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving trick-mode start timestamps of trick-mode events performed on a video sequence in end-user devices such that each trick-mode start timestamp is associated with a trick-mode event performed on a video sequence in one end-user device, receiving trick-mode end timestamps of the trick-mode events, aggregating the trick-mode start timestamps according to a time value of each of the trick-mode start timestamps, aggregating the trick-mode end timestamps according to a time value of each of the trick-mode end timestamps, identifying a plurality of start clusters from the aggregation of the trick-mode start time stamps, identifying a plurality of end clusters from the aggregation of the trick-mode end time stamps, analyzing the plurality of start clusters and the plurality of end clusters, and identifying a level of engagement of a section of the video sequence based on the analyzing.
