Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for multi-purpose metering are disclosed. An example method includes acquiring a rate of data transfer to/from the monitored location and comparing the acquired rate of data transfer to a threshold. The example method also includes setting at least one media monitoring device in a first bandwidth mode when the acquired rate of data transfer exceeds the threshold, and setting the at least one media monitoring device in a second bandwidth mode when the acquired rate of data transfer is below the threshold.

Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for identifying viewing information associated with a digital media device (210) are disclosed. Data conveyed via a data bus (216) communicatively coupled to a processor (212) and a data storage device (214) associated with the digital media device (210) is monitored. Event information associated with the digital media device is extracted from the data and the viewing information is identified based on the event information.
