# MaxShortStoryDuration

The maximum duration of a segment that can be classified as a short story.

A short story is a video segment that contains a consistent set of concepts, but where the total length is too short to be considered a complete story. For example, a news presenter might briefly describe the news headlines at the end of the hour, so each topic is likely to be covered for only 20 or 30 seconds.
