Abstract: A method includes beginning to broadcast primary media content at a primary media server. Concurrently with beginning to broadcast the primary media content, beginning to stream the primary media content into a primary media queue at a secondary media server. At the secondary media server, broadcasting secondary media content from a secondary media queue until the primary media queue includes sufficient content to satisfy a fill threshold. In response to determining that the fill threshold has been satisfied, switching from broadcasting the secondary media content from the secondary media queue to broadcasting the primary media content from the primary media queue.

Abstract: An edge device operates in an online mode of operation during a first period of time, wherein during the online mode of operation, the edge device obtains broadcast-related information originating from media automation applications. The edge device operates in a local mode of operation during a second period of time, wherein during the local mode of operation the edge device obtains locally stored broadcast-related information, and emulates services provided by the media automation applications. The edge device operates in a disaster recovery mode of operation during recovery from the local mode of operation, wherein during the disaster recovery mode of operation the edge device obtains stored broadcast-related information from a content recovery database.

Abstract: A graphical user interface (GUI) includes a first display region including a first Station Selector object and multiple first sub-regions displayed within the first display region. First user input, entered using the first Station Selector object is received, where the first user input identifies a first media station. In response to receiving the first user input, the first sub-regions are automatically populated with first information associated with first media provided by the first media station. At some later time, second user input is received via the same Station Selector object, where the second user input identifies a second media station, and the first information displayed in the first sub-regions is automatically replaced with second information associated with second media presented via the second media station in response to receiving the second user input identifying the second media station.

Abstract: Multiple media delivery subsystems are connected via a communications network, and are configured to transfer broadcast content among themselves. A media distribution device communicates with the media delivery subsystems via the communications network. The media delivery subsystems transmit temporal priority messages to the media distribution device. A temporal priority message is used to indicate a temporal priority of a media item from the perspective of the media delivery subsystem associated with the message. The media distribution device manages transfers of broadcast content from one media delivery subsystem to another media delivery subsystem in accordance with the temporal priority messages.

Abstract: A syndicated-content recognition system retrieves, from at least one database, media broadcast files broadcast by a plurality of media broadcast sources, wherein individual media broadcast files are associated with stations, days of the week, and times. Based on historical data associated with the media broadcast files, the system determines whether a particular media broadcast file associated with a particular station and a particular time is likely to include syndicated content. In response to determining that the particular media broadcast file is likely to include syndicated content the particular media broadcast file is tagged to generate a tagged media broadcast file, and the tagged media broadcast file is exempted from syndicated-content-comparisons with other media broadcast files.

Abstract: Content from multiple different sources can be divided into segments based on time. Matched segments associated with each source can be identified by comparing content included in a first segment associated with a first source, to content included in a second segment associated with a second source. Syndicated content can be identified and tagged based, at least in part, on a relationship between sequences of matched segments on different stations. Various embodiments also include identifying main sequences associated with each source under consideration, removing some of the main sequences, and consolidating remaining main sequences based on various threshold criteria.

Abstract: A content item can be produced at a first system in segments, and some or all of the content item can be transferred to second systems, via transfer of produced segments of the content item. Content preferences, database configuration and playback schedules can be configured with a remote media content processing system. This information is then transferred from the remote media content processing system to one or more other remote media content processing systems. This transferred information provides a configuration for segmented WANcasting of a content items from one or more remote media content processing systems until the content item is complete.

Abstract: An application client receives an open window event from an intermediary device before transmitting a licensing request to the intermediary device. The intermediary device transmits the licensing request to an authentication server, which responds by transmitting a message indicating approval status of the request back to the intermediary device. If the intermediary device is not within a predetermined proximity of the application client, the intermediary can wait predetermined amount of time for the intermediary device to return to the predetermined proximity of the application client before transmitting a second message indicating approval status to the application client. The application client receives, from the intermediary device, a licensing response reporting the approval status indicated by the message from the authentication server.

Abstract: A media stream includes multiple spot blocks representing portions of time assigned to particular media content, where some of the plurality of spot blocks include primary media content, and others include advertising content. The media stream also includes a contextual marker embedded in at least one of the spot blocks. The contextual marker includes information used by a media player to transmit a tracking call in response to reading the contextual marker.
