Abstract

In an approach to video filtering, a computer receives a first video frame of a presenter from a video feed that includes an audio feed. The computer receives a second video frame. The computer determines whether a difference between the first video frame and the second video frame exceeds a pre-defined threshold. In response to determining the difference between the first video frame and the second video frame exceeds the pre-defined threshold, the computer determines whether the difference between the first video frame and the second video frame is expected. In response to determining the difference between the first video frame and the second video frame is expected, the computer discards video data associated with the difference between the first video frame and the second video frame. The computer creates a third video frame, based, at least in part, on non-discarded video data.
