Abstract:
Disclosed are methods and systems involving location-based disambiguation of media channel identification, in a scenario where a fingerprint of media content being rendered by a media presentation device matches multiple reference fingerprints corresponding respectively with multiple different media channels. Upon detecting such a multi-match situation, a server or other entity will use a location of the media presentation device as a basis to disambiguate between the matching reference fingerprints and thus to determine the channel on which the media content being rendered by the media presentation device is arriving.

Claim (Index 1):
A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon instructions executable by a processing unit to cause a computing system to carry out operations comprising:\n receiving from a media presentation device a communication providing a digital fingerprint of media content being rendered by the media presentation device; receiving from the media presentation device an indication of location of the media presentation device; determining that the digital fingerprint of media content being rendered by a media presentation device matches multiple reference fingerprints each corresponding with a different respective channel; responsive to determining that the digital fingerprint matches the multiple reference fingerprints each corresponding with a different respective channel, performing disambiguation based at least in part on the received indication of location of the media presentation device, to determine which channel that the media presentation device is receiving the media content on, wherein performing the disambiguation comprises, based at least in part on a match between the location of the media presentation device and a location associated with a particular one of the multiple reference fingerprints, determining that the respective channel with which the particular reference fingerprint corresponds is the channel that the media presentation device is receiving media content on; and taking action based on the determined channel.
