Abstract:
A real time messaging platform identifies an audio snippet of a time-based media (TBM) event. The messaging platform maintains a real time repository of concurrently broadcasting TBM events as well as a historical repository of previously broadcast TBM events. These repositories contain acoustic fingerprints of their respective TBM events. The messaging platform matches an acoustic fingerprint of the audio snippet with one of the stored acoustic fingerprints to identify the TBM event in the recorded snippet. To identify the TBM event, the messaging platform matches multiple overlapping reference audio segments of the reference audio stream with multiple test audio segments of the audio snippet. This allows the platform to account for time delays between the test and reference audio segments that would otherwise hinder the matching process.

Claim (Index 1):
A method comprising:\n receiving, at a real-time messaging platform comprising a plurality of user accounts, a reference audio stream associated with a time-based media event comprising an audio feature including an audio property occurring at a property time, the audio feature selected based on an inclusion condition; receiving, at a real-time messaging platform from a user account of the plurality of user accounts, a test audio snippet comprising the audio feature including the audio property occurring at the property time; determining that the test audio snippet matches at least a portion of the reference audio stream based on the audio feature including the audio property occurring at the property time in the reference audio stream and the test audio snippet; designating the user account that submitted the test audio snippet as a synchronized user account, the synchronized user account associated with the time-based media event; transmitting, from the real-time messaging platform to the synchronized user account, a content item associated with time-based media event.
