Method and system for generating a time-lapse video
One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for generating and/or presenting time-lapse videos and/or live-stream videos are provided. For example, a plurality of video frames may be extracted from a video. A first set of video frames and a second set of video frames may be identified from the plurality of video frames. The first set of video frames may be combined to generate a first time-lapse video frame and the second set of video frames may be combined to generate a second time-lapse video frame. A time-lapse video may be generated based upon the first time-lapse video frame and the second time-lapse video frame. In another example, a time-lapse video may be generated based upon a recorded video associated with a live-stream video. The time-lapse video may be presented. Responsive to a completion of the presenting the time-lapse video, the live-stream video may be presented.

providing for displaying a second portion of the time-lapse video comprising the second plurality of time-lapse video frames after the displaying the first portion of the time-lapse video; and
providing for displaying a third portion of the time-lapse video comprising the third plurality of time-lapse video frames after the displaying the second plurality of time-lapse video frames.
7. The method of claim 6 ,
the third number of video frames less than the fourth number of video frames; and
the fifth number of video frames less than the fourth number of video frames.
8. The method of claim 7 ,
the first portion of the time-lapse video comprising a representation of a first portion of the video at a first speed;
the second portion of the time-lapse video comprising a representation of a second portion of the video at a second speed; and
the third portion of the time-lapse video comprising a representation of a third portion of the video at a third speed, the first speed less than the second speed and the third speed less than the second speed.
9. The method of claim 1 ,
the first number of video frames equal to the second number of video frames.
10. The method of claim 1 ,

generating a time-lapse video based upon the plurality of video frames;
responsive to receiving a request to access the live-stream video, presenting the time-lapse video; and
responsive to a completion of the presenting the time-lapse video, presenting the live-stream video from a first starting time.
14. The method of claim 13 ,
the plurality of video frames ending with a last video frame;
the live-stream video beginning with a first live-stream video frame; and
the first live-stream video frame representing a continuation of the last video frame.
15. The method of claim 13 , the request to access the live-stream video received at a first time, the method comprising:
generating a second time-lapse video;
responsive to receiving a request to access the live-stream video at a second time, presenting the second time-lapse video; and
responsive to a completion of the presenting the second time-lapse video, presenting the live-stream video from a second starting time.
