Claim Text:
1. A method comprising: accessing a query fingerprint that includes a first component based on a plurality of patches of a first frame of a set of frames of video content captured at a client device, the first component composed of bits of data, the bits of data representing at least two patches of the plurality of patches; querying a database of reference fingerprints associated with frames of known video content, each reference fingerprint having a plurality of components, each component of the plurality of components of each reference fingerprint based on a corresponding frame of known video content; determining that the query fingerprint matches at least one of the reference fingerprints, a number of frames in the set of frames of video content on which the query fingerprint is based being fewer than a number of frames used to generate the at least one matching reference fingerprint; identifying, by a processor of a machine, the video content captured at the client device based on the determination that the query fingerprint matches at least one of the reference fingerprints; and sending an identifier to the client device, the identifier corresponding to the identified video content.
