Abstract
In one embodiment, a method receives an image of video content for a video offered by a video delivery service. The method analyzes pixels in the image to determine color attributes of the pixels, the color attributes including a lightness attribute and a hue attribute. Lightness counts for the image based on the lightness attribute and hue group counts based on the hue attribute are generated for the pixels. The method selects a lightness classification from lightness classifications based on the lightness counts and selects a hue group from hue groups based on the hue group counts. The lightness classification and the hue group classification are sent to a client device to allow the client device to generate a color using the lightness classification, the hue group classification, and a saturation value, the color being applied to an interface on the client device that is displaying the image.
