Abstract
A set of techniques leverages a real-time version of a media stream to gather information on its content which information is used to improve or augment the service delivery of other versions (e.g., live or video-on-demand) of the same stream. These techniques take advantage of the fact that the real-time version of a stream is sufficiently ahead, in time, from any other version to enable the gathering and use of information on the stream content.
