Abstract:
In one aspect, an example method includes (i) obtaining fingerprint repetition data for a portion of video content, with the fingerprint repetition data including a list of other portions of video content matching the portion of video content and respective reference identifiers for the other portions of video content; (ii) identifying the portion of video content as a program segment rather than an advertisement segment based at least on a number of unique reference identifiers within the list of other portions of video content relative to a total number of reference identifiers within the list of other portions of video content; (iii) determining that the portion of video content corresponds to a program specified in an electronic program guide using a timestamp of the portion of video content; and (iv) storing an indication of the portion of video content in a data file for the program.
