1. A method for generating video fingerprints comprising:
sharing timeline and metadata of an original digital media file including at least one of a video digital file and an audio digital file;
identifying a region within the original media file;
bookmarking the identified region with a fingerprinting algorithm;
detecting a bookmarked region of a duplicate of the original media file using the fingerprinting algorithm; and
comparing the bookmarked region of the original media file to the bookmarked region of the duplicate, wherein detecting a bookmarked region includes examining for the presence of matchable characteristics in a frame group, applying a region algorithm to the frame group, removing repetitive occurrences of the matchable characteristics, and defining a path of the matchable characteristics within the frame group.
