Claim One:
1. A method, comprising the steps of: accessing a portion of media content; wherein the media content comprises one or more of a video image or an audio spectrogram; sampling one or more components from a first spatial region of the media content; sampling one or more components from a second spatial region of the media content; wherein the first spatial region overlaps with the second spatial region; deriving a first media fingerprint from the components of the first and the second spatial regions based on moment invariants and/or based on chrominance related and luminance related values; generating a difference instance from one or more of the video image or the audio spectrogram by comparing a current version and a temporally averaged version thereof; computing a plurality of moment invariants from a set of regions in the difference instance; deriving a second media fingerprint based on the plurality of computed moment invariants; and concatenating the first media fingerprint and the second media fingerprint.
