Abstract:

A system and method for automated caching and tabling for finding and swapping media content is disclosed. The system and method include at least: (a) detecting, by one or more computing devices, one or more media packets transmitted over a network, wherein the one or more media packets are associated with the media content; (b) generating, by the one or more computing devices, a profile for the media content based on characteristics of the one or more media packets; (c) generating, by the one or more computing devices, a hash value based on the profile; (d) transmitting for storage in a database, by the one or more computing devices, the hash value, the profile, and the one or more media packets; (e) detecting, by the one or more computing devices, one or more subsequent media packets sent over the network and addressed to a destination to determine that the one or more subsequent media packets are associated with the media content by comparing the one or more subsequent media packets to the profile via the hash value; and (f) based on the detecting in (e) the system and method can further include transmitting, by the one or more computing devices, the one or more subsequent media packets or the one or more media packets to the destination based on a predetermined criteria.
