AI Scene Classification¶

The AI Scene Classification batch tool uses AI to classify scenes and detect objects in video thumbnails. You can access this tool from the start page or by right-clicking a video and selecting Classify Scenes... from the context menu. Detected scenes and objects are added as keywords to the thumbnails.

The tool provides two classification options that can be used independently or together:

Scene Classification -- Identifies the type of scene in each thumbnail (e.g., indoor, outdoor, kitchen, beach).

Object Detection -- Detects objects present in each thumbnail (e.g., car, person, dog).

You can adjust the minimum confidence slider to control how certain the AI must be before tagging a scene or object. Higher values reduce false positives but may miss some detections.

Select which videos to process: All videos, the currently selected videos, or the filtered set. You can also choose to skip thumbnails that have already been classified. The frame skip setting controls how many thumbnails to skip between processed ones, where 1 means all thumbnails are processed.

See the Scene Classification preferences for additional settings.
