The attribute data may indicate a genre of a movie, a music style of a song, etc. or a sequence of genres/music styles. The content-analysis processor (310) utilizes the attribute data to detect whether the content stream belongs to the content item by analyzing the content stream so as to detect the correspondence of the content stream to the attribute data.
