Abstract
Techniques are shown for generating image frames from a media presentation. In one embodiment a computer implemented method is provided. The method includes identifying, by a processing device, image frames from a media presentation comprising a plurality of image frames. Candidate thumbnails are selected from the identified image frames. A probability is determined that a selected candidate thumbnail with a success ranking higher than other selected thumbnails is an optimum candidate thumbnail for representing the media presentation in view of a relationship between the success ranking of the selected candidate thumbnail and the success rankings of the other selected candidate thumbnails. Thereupon, data for displaying the selected candidate thumbnail to a user as a representative of the media presentation is provided by the processing device.
