Abstract: A processing device and method are disclosed to generate automatic content recognition (ACR) fingerprints. A device can include a processing device to execute a capture daemon. The capture daemon may include a capturer to receive media content from a content feed and to generate content frames of the media content. The capture daemon can also include ACR fingerprinter to generate ACR fingerprint information for the content frames. The ACR fingerprinter may communicate the ACR fingerprint information to an ACR server via a first communication channel. The processing device may determine when the ACR fingerprinter fails; cease communicating the ACR fingerprint information to the ACR server; and restart the ACR fingerprinter.

Abstract: A method, system, or device determine when media content is to be displayed. The method can include receiving media content on a broadcast channel from a content feed. The method can also include receiving an identifier for upcoming media content from an automatic content recognition (ACR) system in response to a trigger event. The method can include receiving overlay content from an overlay content server. The method can include storing the overlay content at a memory device. The method can include determining a time that the media content is to be displayed using the identifier.

Abstract: Automatic content recognition (ACR) and media content encoding technologies are described. A content device can include a processing device and a capture interface. The processing device can be on a circuit board. A capture interface can be coupled to the processing device and include a data port. The processing device can be operable to execute a capture daemon. The capture daemon can include a capturer to receive media content from a content feed and generate content frames of the media content. The capture daemon can also include an encoder to receive the content frames from the capturer and encode the media content. The capture daemon can include an uploader to receive the encoded media content from the encoder and communicate the encoded media content to a broadcast sever. The capture daemon can also include an ACR fingerprinter to receive the content frames from the capturer and generate ACR fingerprint information.
