Abstract: A method of generating a motion menu in a low memory environment. The method generally includes the steps of (A) generating a plurality of encoded streams in a buffer by encoding a fixed duration from each of a plurality of title streams received in a video program, (B) generating a plurality of thumbnails frames in the buffer by decoding each of the encoded streams and (C) generating the motion menu in the buffer by combining one of the thumbnail frames from each respective one of the encoded streams into a respective one of plurality of menu frames such that a sequential display the menu frames appears as a plurality of thumbnails having dynamic content in the motion menu.
