Abstract

L'invention concerne des procédés et un appareil permettant de vérifier la consommation de contenu. Dans un procédé exemplaire, une bibliothèque de contenus (240) est engendrée (232) au sein d'une structure de données (234). Ladite bibliothèque de contenus comporte au moins un identificateur de contenu associé au contenu de programmation. Ledit contenu de programmation peut être introduit dans un flux de contenu. Un flux de contenu contenant un contenu destiné à la diffusion au niveau d'un dispositif de diffusion (220) est reçu. Afin de vérifier la consommation du contenu de programmation, un identificateur de contenu de diffusion associé au contenu de diffusion est comparé (236) à au moins un identificateur de contenu de la bibliothèque de contenus.
