#$%^&*AU2011202025B220140403.pdf#####ABSTRACT Methods and apparatus to detect a time-shift event associated with the presentation of media content are disclosed. A disclosed system (110) generates a first metering event representative of a first time period in which a program was continuously presented and a second metering event representative of a second time period in which a program eas continuously presented. A time-shift detector (118) receives the first and second events and calculates a presentation gap value and a broadcast time jump value. The time-shift detector (118) compares the presentation gap value and the broadcast time jump value to determine whether a pause event fast forward event or a rewind event occurred.11/7 C0N 0 0 I C: I~~i Q CD C E I5 a 0 0 CO aro r -" Nr -a-' - - - - - - - - -- - - -0 0 x 0 I- L. 0 E 0 o ..
