Abstract
A technique that may be used to configure a computer system to automatically search a video and select a frame within the video clip that best represents the content of that video. A frame contained in a video is identified. Luminance values for each pixel in a plurality of pixels contained in the frame are then generated. The frame is then selected as a poster frame for the video if a luminance value for at least one pixel in the plurality of pixels contained in the identified frame is outside a range of luminance values. The range of luminance values may be determined from a luminance value associated with a reference pixel contained in the frame.
