Abstract
Media content comprises video. The video comprises a sequence of scenes comprising pictures. The media content comprises segments. A method determines when a scene change between a first scene and a second, subsequent, scene occurs within a predetermined proximity to a boundary between segments. When a scene change occurs within a predetermined proximity of an end of a segment, at least a first picture in the second scene is discarded and an additional picture is inserted in the first scene. When a scene change occurs within a predetermined proximity of a start of a segment, at least one picture in the first scene is discarded and an additional picture is inserted in the second scene. The additional picture can be a repeat or a copy of an existing picture, or it can be based on at least one existing picture in the first scene, such as by interpolation.
