Abstract
A method includes generating index data from media events that include video content, the event index data being generated by a server, generating locator code data for the event index data, the locator code data being generated by the server, providing the generated event index data and the locator code data from the server to a memory device for storage, searching the generated event index data to identify a segment of the media events in response to receiving a search request, determining segment locator code data from the locator code data based on the identified segment, and transmitting over a network to the end user media device the segment locator code data that corresponds to the identified at least one segment to enable the end user media device to extract an image from a recorded media event for generating an index display using the extracted image.
