In recent years, more and more people capture their experiences in home videos. However, home video editing still is a
difficult and time-consuming task. We present the Edit While Watching system that allows users to automatically create
and change a summary of a home video in an easy, intuitive and lean-back way. Based on content analysis, video is
indexed, segmented, and combined with proper music and editing effects. The result is an automatically generated home
video summary that is shown to the user. While watching it, users can indicate whether they like certain content, so that
the system will adapt the summary to contain more content that is similar or related to the displayed content. During the
video playback users can also modify and enrich the content, seeing immediately the effects of their changes. Edit While
Watching does not require a complex user interface: a TV and a few keys of a remote control are sufficient. A user study
has shown that it is easy to learn and to use, even if users expressed the need for more control in the editing operations
and in the editing process.
