A dynamic method and system for processing video source frames (44) (e.g., a television movie) with a video processing system (VPS) (10) that includes a processor (12), a memory structure (14), input devices (19), and an output display (20). The video source frames (44), which are received by the VPS (10) from a video source (30), are executed by the processor (12). While the video source frames (44) are being executed (50), a subset of the frames (44), called key frames (48), are extracted (52) from the video source frames (44) and stored (54) in the memory structure (14). The extracting (52) of the key frames (48) is implemented in accordance with a frame extraction algorithm (32). The extracting (52) is terminated prior to completion of execution (50) of the video source frames (44). Following termination of extracting (52), the key frames (48) are reviewed (56) by a user (40) with the output display (20) to determine whether to watch the remainder of the video source frames (44). The key frames (48) are erased (60) after being reviewed (56).
