A subscription server generates, at a clock generation module, a clock template including a plurality of slots, each slot associated with at least one content type, and wherein the clock template includes information indicating timing relationships of the plurality of slots relative to one another. The subscription server determines that a media log is to be generated from the clock template for one or more subscribers, and obtains, from a subscription verification module implemented by the processor and associated memory, trust parameters associated with the one or more subscribers. A log generation module implemented by the processor and associated memory, generates a media log including at least one slot assigned a restriction level determined based on the trust parameters. The media log, including information indicating the restriction level, is transmitted to at least one of the one or more subscribers.

A radio receiver of an audio system receives a radio signal that includes a main signal and a radio data system (RDS) signal. The RDS signal includes custom information associated with media content tags and synchronized with time slots in the main signal. A media streaming service identifies targeted media content based on a profile of a mobile device connected to the audio system and sends the targeted media content to the mobile device over an Internet connection. During a playing of the audio broadcast, the audio system receives a custom information in the RDS signal and sends to the mobile device a request including the media content tag associated with the custom information. In response, the audio system receives from the mobile device a targeted media content matching the media content tag. The audio system plays the targeted media content synchronized with the time slot in the main signal.

A method, device, system, and media are directed to controlling a multi-tuner radio. A voice command may be received and/or filtered. An operation of the radio may be modified based on the voice command. A gesture input may be received through a gesture pad. Another operation of the multi-tuner radio may be modified based on the received gesture input. A fingerprint may be recognized with a gesture pad. A user may be authenticated based on the recognized fingerprint. The operation or the other operation may be personalized based on the fingerprint. User training may be provided for the gesture input.

Local stations can generate their station broadcast logs based on a master broadcast log. In some cases, local stations are allowed to edit some positions, or slots, in their local logs, so that the local logs do not match the master log. This can create complexity when voice tracks for empty voice track slots are provided to the local stations, because voice tracks often reference the media in slots on either side of the empty voice track slots. An improved voice track editor indicates whether media items adjacent to an empty voice track slot in a master log match corresponding items in a station log.

Disclosed embodiments provide methods and systems to capture, persist, and access a real-time audio stream and metadata associated with a radio broadcast. The real-time audio stream is captured on an audio capture device comprising a real-time clock. The audio is associated with the points in time it is captured with time markers. In embodiments, the audio is encoded for transmission with the time markers to a remote server. After being captured, encoded, and associated with time markers, the audio is transmitted to a remote server for archiving. Client devices are used to provide access to archived content. Clients request portions of the real-time audio stream from the remote server, and identify the portions they are requesting by including in their request either real-time bounds, or other information which is associated on the remote server with real-time bounds, such as content descriptor types.

A method of registration for a broadcast receiver, a terminal and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium are provided. The method includes: classifying a broadcast sender according to a frequency of a broadcast message sent by the broadcast sender and called by a broadcast recipient, and recording the broadcast sender and a type of the broadcast sender determined in a classification result; querying, after obtaining a registration instruction of the broadcast receiver and according to a registration object in a registration instruction, the type of the broadcast sender corresponding to the registration object from the classification result; and processing, according to the type of the broadcast sender, the registration of the broadcast receiver.
