Abstract
Systems, methods, and devices are disclosed enabling smart search functionalities utilizing key scene changes appearing in video content. In various embodiments, the method includes the step or process of, while engaged in playback of the video content, receiving a user command at a playback device to shift a current playback position of the video content to a default search playback position (PP). In response to receipt of the user command, the playback device searches a time window encompassing the default search playback position (PP) for a key scene change in the video content. If locating a key scene change within the time window, the playback device shifts playback of the video content to a playback position corresponding to the key scene change (PP). Otherwise, the playback device shifts playback of the video content to the default search playback position (PP).
