Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for determining identifier information associated with media content stored in a storage device; wherein the storage device comprises a plurality of clusters and stores a media file including media content and identifier information associated with the media content, the media content and the identifier information being stored in a plurality of data units distributed among the plurality of clusters. The method comprises: determining, when a data unit is read, a first identifier associated with a first target cluster that stores the data unit being read; determining a second identifier associated with the first identifier, the second identifier being associated with a second target cluster that stores a data unit that stores the identifier information; and obtaining, based on the second identifier, the identifier information associated with the media content.
