1. A method comprising:
receiving a broadcast video program from a network from a first source; receiving an indication of a portion of interest in the broadcast video program; after receiving the indication of the portion of interest:
generating an index to the broadcast video program, wherein the index:
comprises scenes associated with the portion of interest;comprises scenes which are not associated with the portion of interest;is generated independent of index information transmitted with the broadcast video program; andis generated by combining extracted images and text from the broadcast video program with network-based content provided by an external source, the network-based content being transmitted separately from the broadcast video program; andautomatically, via a processor and without user input, supplementing the index with the network-based content as the index is generated, wherein the network-based content is from a second source that is distinct from the first source; presenting the index on a display, wherein presenting of the index occurs on a first computing device different from a second computing device which displays the broadcast video program, wherein the first computing device is a hand-held device comprising a touch-sensitive screen, wherein the handheld device presents the extracted images and text, and wherein the broadcast video program is navigated via touch input received from the touch-sensitive screen of the hand-held device; receiving user input regarding a location of the broadcast video program to navigate to based on the index; and playing the broadcast video program, on the display, starting at the location. |
