First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving at a client device media content rendered by a media rendering source;
the client device making an attempt to determine an identity of the media content based on information stored on the client device;
based on the attempt of the client device to determine the identity of the media content, determining an identity of the media rendering source; and
based on the attempt of the client device to determine the identity of the media content and on determining the identity of the media rendering source, sending information indicative of the media content to a content recognition server to determine the identity of the media content.

Abstract
Methods and systems for identifying information of a broadcast station and information of broadcasted content are provided. In one example, a method includes receiving at a client device media content rendered by a media rendering source, and the client device making an attempt to determine an identity of the media content based on information stored on the client device. The method also includes based on the attempt of the client device to determine the identity of the media content, determining an identity of the media rendering source. The method further includes based on the attempt of the client device to determine the identity of the media content and on determining the identity of the media rendering source, sending information indicative of the media content to a content recognition server to determine the identity of the media content.

18. A device comprising:
-
a database configured to receive and store information indicative of one or more features of media content and information identifying the media content; and a content identification module coupled to the database and configured to (i) make an attempt to determine an identity of received media content rendered by a media rendering source based on a comparison with the stored information in the database, (ii) based on the attempt, to determine an identity of the media rendering source, and (iii) based on the attempt and on the determine the identity of the media rendering source, to send information indicative of the media content to a content recognition server to determine the identity of the media content. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
