Abstract:
Disclosed herein are methods and systems to help disambiguate channel identification in a scenario where fingerprint data of media content being rendered by a media presentation device matches multiple reference fingerprints corresponding respectively with multiple different channels. Upon detecting such a multi-match, a server or other entity will perform disambiguation based at least in part on a comparison of time of broadcast of the media content being rendered by the media presentation device with time of broadcast of the media content represented by the reference fingerprints. The server or other entity will thereby determine the channel on which the media content being rendered by the media presentation device is arriving, so as to facilitate taking channel-specific action.

Claim (Index 17):
A system comprising:\n a network communication interface; a processing unit; non-transitory data storage; and program instructions stored in the non-transitory data storage and executable by the processing unit to carry out operations including:\n receiving from a media presentation device, via the network communication interface, a fingerprint of media content being rendered by the media presentation device and an indication of time of broadcast of the media content being rendered by the media presentation device, \n determining that the received fingerprint matches multiple reference fingerprints each corresponding with a different respective channel, \n responsive to determining that the received fingerprint matches the multiple reference fingerprints each corresponding with a different respective channel, performing disambiguation based at least in part on the time of broadcast of the media content being rendered by the media presentation device, to determine which channel the media presentation device is receiving the media content on, and \n taking action based on the determined channel.
