Claim One:
1. A method to determine a time offset between a first media signature including a first sequence of first data pairs and a second media signature including a second sequence of second data pairs, the method comprising: comparing, via a processor, ones of the first data pairs in the first sequence with ones of the second data pairs in the second sequence to determine original time differences between respective combinations of the ones of the first data pairs and the ones of the second data pairs; scaling and truncating, via the processor, the original time differences to determine adjusted time differences between respective combinations of the ones of the first data pairs and the ones of the second data pairs; determining, via the processor, a histogram including bins representative of the adjusted time differences, a first one of the bins of the histogram being representative of a first one of the adjusted time differences, a value of the first one of the bins being determined to correspond to a count of the combinations of the ones of the first data pairs and the ones of the second data pairs having respective adjusted time differences corresponding to the first one of the adjusted time differences; and selecting, via the processor, a bin of the histogram to correspond to the time offset between the first media signature and the second media signature.
