Abstract

See full text

In one embodiment, a method sends a request for a bundle of preview images for a video to a server. The video is played and a portion of the bundle of preview images for the video is received. The method decodes the portion of the bundle of preview images before the entire bundle of preview images is received. Then, an input from a user for a location in the video is received and the method determines if a preview image corresponding to the location has been decoded from the bundle of preview images. When the image corresponding to the location has been decoded, the preview image corresponding to the location is displayed as a preview image.
