In this paper we address the problem of the detection of abrupt shot changes in videos. Differently from the majority of the techniques in the literature., we perform this task directly on the stream coded in the Mpeg format, without resorting to any decoding procedure. The proposed algorithm proceeds according to a step-wise refinement strategy and combining different cut detection criteria. Experimental results are presented and discussed.
