Abstract
Methods and apparatus for detecting space-shifted media content associated with a digital recording/playback device are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a meter to detect presentation of media by a media playback device; a network analyzer to detect a data packet transmitted from a network database to the media playback device; and determine that the data packet includes the media; and a memory device to, in response to determining that the data packet includes the media, store an indication that the media was space-shifted.
