Introduction
The Live Channel Fingerprinting Tool (Download) is used for extracting and uploading features from live TV channel streams in real-time.
After the app is integrated, our SDK can detect your channels by recording the audio for just a few seconds in real-time.
We assume that this tool will be running on your server, which already has quick network access to the streams so that our system guarantees the Real-Time performance to detect the live channels.
