1. A method comprising the acts: applying a first classification procedure to received audio and/or visual information, to identify a type of the received audio and/or visual information from among two possible types: a first type, and a second type; applying a first combination of plural recognition technologies to the received audio and/or visual information if the received audio and/or visual information is identified as the first type; and applying a second combination of plural recognition technologies to the received audio and/or visual information if the received audio and/or visual information is identified as the second type; wherein at least one of the applied combinations of plural recognition technologies includes a watermark- or fingerprint-based recognition technology, and the first and second combinations are different; and wherein at least one of said acts is performed by hardware configured to perform such act(s); the method further including: applying a second classification procedure to second information to determine a contextual scenario type from among plural contextual scenario types, said second information including information different than the received audio and/or visual information; applying said first combination of plural recognition technologies to the received audio and/or visual information if the received audio and/or visual information is identified as the first type, and the contextual scenario type is determined to be a first contextual scenario type; and applying a third combination of plural recognition technologies to the received audio and/or visual information if the received audio and/or visual information is identified as the first type, and the contextual scenario is determined to be a second contextual scenario type different than said first contextual scenario type; wherein the first and third combinations of plural recognition technologies are different.
