Abstract
This disclosure is directed to a system and method that automatically detects repeated content within multiple media items. Content providers often include content, such as an introduction, near the beginning of a media item. In some circumstances, such as in the case of a series of television episodes, the content providers use the same content in each episode of the series. By dividing the media items into portions and analyzing the portions, the systems and methods described can automatically detect the repeated content. Using the detection of the repeated content, a user interface can then allow a user to bypass the repeated content during playback.
