Abstract: According to the technical solution of an embodiment of the present invention, since content information is transmitted synchronously with the program scene, within the broadcast stream of data, media data, for example, advertisements, which may be of interest to the user, can be analyzed by selecting scenes at a granular level from the broadcast information. In one regard, the selected scene is being played currently, enhancing the relevance of the real-time analysis. In another regard, selecting a reduced granularity avoids statistical information overshadowing individual information. In this way, the accuracy of selecting media data with respect to a current user is improved.
