Question about audio fingerprinting

hi,
The only information I can find about Audio Fingerprinting is in WM10 it is done using metadata and in WM11 it is waveform fingerprinting. I have tested that and its working fine. But is there any literature on fingerprinting and is there any API for fingerprinting (finding id3 tag, album art based on waveform fingerprint)

Thanks,
kalyan

Audio Fingerprinting: When an ID3 tag for a song is missing, the first few seconds of the song is cut and it is compared with a database of songs stored in some server and the information about the song is identified.

This forum focuses primarily on Media Foundation, which is the new multimedia platform for Windows Vista. Since your question has to do with the Windows Media Player, you might want to try posting it to the Windows Media Player newsgroup, which you can get to from here: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/community/newsgroups/WindowsMedia/default.mspx?d=1
