1. A method for detecting a known video entity within a video stream, the method comprising: receiving a video stream; continually creating statistical parameterized representations for windows of the video stream; continually comparing the statistical parameterized representation windows to windows of a plurality of fingerprints, wherein each of the plurality of fingerprints includes associated statistical parameterized representations of a known video entity; and detecting a known video entity in the video stream when a particular fingerprint of the plurality of fingerprints has at least a threshold level of similarity with the video stream.
