A wireless mobile terminal works with an identification server to
automatically identify a broadcast program/movie and then identify and
connect to a networked media server to receive the identified
program/movie therefrom. The terminal generates data that characterizes
content of a broadcast program/movie that is send by the terminal and is
playing external thereto. The terminal transmits a message that includes
the characterization data and a request for identification of a media
server from which the broadcast program/movie can be received. The
identification server identifies the broadcast program/movie, and
identifies a user viewed location within the identified program/movie
that corresponds to what was sensed by the terminal. The identification
server identifies an Internet address of a media server from which the
terminal can receive transmission of the identified program/movie. The
identification server transmits a message to the terminal that identifies
the identified program/movie, the user viewed location therein, and the
Internet address of the media server. The terminal responds to the
message by establishing a communication connection to the identified
media server and requesting transmission therefrom of the identified
program/movie starting from a location corresponding to the user viewed
location.
