发明名称 METHODS AND SYSTEMS TO MONITOR A MEDIA DEVICE USING A DIGITAL AUDIO SIGNAL
摘要 Methods and systems are disclosed to monitor a media device. An example method includes attempting to detect a logical transition between two sequential bits in a sequence of bits of a digital audio signal output by a port of the media device, the digital audio signal being encoded via differential encoding; and when the logical transition is detected, generating operating state data including a first time and indicating that the media device was in an on state at the first time; or when the logical transition is not detected, generating the operating state data including the first time and indicating that the media device was in an off state at the first time.

主权项 1. A method to monitor a media device, comprising: attempting, by executing a first instruction with a processor, to detect a logical transition between two sequential bits in a sequence of bits of a digital audio signal output by a port of the media device, the digital audio signal being encoded via differential encoding; and when the logical transition is detected, generating operating state data by executing a second instruction with the processor, the operating state data including a first time and indicating that the media device was in an on state at the first time; or when the logical transition is not detected, generating the operating state data by executing a third instruction with the processor, the operating state data including the first time and indicating that the media device was in an off state at the first time.
