An add-on for XBMC that creates a palette of the used colors in a video.
'Avatar' trailer
'Finding Nemo' trailer

It samples the video every second and calculates the most dominant color. It creates a PNG image with the colors and/or a HTML page. The HTML page uses a mouse-over effect to show the image it sampled, and optionally updates a Philips Hue light bulb to the selected color.
'Life of Pi' HTML output
Complete HTML code available in samples/html_sample.tar.gz.
