Sequentially overlaying media content

1. A device comprising:

a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions; and

a processing device configured to execute the instructions to:

receive a fingerprint for a media segment of a media content and a unique identifier (UID) from an electronic device via a first network connection;

determine a media segment ID for the media segment using the fingerprint;

generate and submit a first query for the media segment ID in a record database via a second network connection;

determine that the record database is storing a first entry for the media segment ID, wherein the record database stores a plurality of entries;

identify a first overlay content segment ID for a first overlay content segment in a set of overlay content segments;

generate and submit a second query for the first overlay content segment ID in the record database;

determine the first overlay content segment ID is stored in a second entry of the record database;

identify a second overlay content segment ID for a second overlay content segment in the set of overlay content segments;

generate and submit a third query for the second overlay content segment ID in the record database;

determine that the second overlay content segment ID is not stored in the plurality of entries in the record database;

store the overlay content segment IDs associated with the overlay content segments in the set of overlay content segments; and

erase the media segment ID and overlay content segment IDs associated with the UID in response to the record database storing entries for the media segment ID and the overlay content segment IDs of the overlay content set for an associated UID.

2. The device of claim 1 , wherein the processing device is further configured to execute the instructions to:

send the second overlay content segment associated with the second overlay content segment ID to the electronic device;

receive a notification from the electronic device, wherein the notification comprises the second overlay content segment ID and the UID; and

record the second overlay content segment ID with the UID into a third entry in the record database.

3. The device of claim 2 , wherein the processing device is further configured to execute the instructions to:

generate and submit a fourth query for the second overlay content segment ID in the record database;

determine that the second overlay content segment ID is stored in a fourth entry in the record database;

identify a third overlay content segment ID for a third overlay content segment in the set of overlay content segments;

generate and submit a fifth query for the third overlay content segment ID in the record database; and

determine that the third overlay content segment ID is not stored in the plurality of entries in the record database.

4. The device of claim 3 , wherein the record database not storing the third overlay content segment ID indicates that the electronic device did not previously display the third overlay content segment.

5. The device of claim 3 , wherein the first entry, the second entry, the third entry, and the fourth entry are associated with the UID.

6. The device of claim 1 , wherein the processing device is further configured to execute the instructions to iteratively generate and submit queries for media segment IDs and overlay content segment IDs in the record database to identify an nth overlay content segment ID associated with an nth overlay content segment that the electronic device has not previously displayed.

7. The device of claim 6 , wherein the queries are sequential searches of the entries in the record database.

8. A device comprising:

a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions; and

a processing device configured to execute the instructions to:

receive a fingerprint for a media segment of a media content and a unique identifier (UID) from an electronic device via a first network connection;

determine a media segment ID for the media segment using the fingerprint;

generate and submit a first query for the media segment ID in a record database via a second network connection;

determine that the record database is storing a first entry for the media segment ID, wherein the record database stores a plurality of entries;

identify a first overlay content segment ID for a first overlay content segment in a set of overlay content segments;

generate and submit a second query for the first overlay content segment ID in the record database;

determine the first overlay content segment ID is stored in a second entry of the record database;

identify a second overlay content segment ID for a second overlay content segment in the set of overlay content segments;

generate and submit a third query for the second overlay content segment ID in the record database; determine that the second overlay content segment ID is not stored in the plurality of entries in the record database;

send an overlay content segment from a different overlay content set when the record database includes entries comprising each of the overlay content segment IDs for the overlay content segments in the overlay content set, and

send a refund notification to another device associated with a user, wherein the refund notification indicates that the overlay content segments in the overlay content segment set have been displayed on the electronic device prior to a threshold number of overlay slots being used for the user.

9. The device of claim 1 , wherein the processing device is further configured to execute the instructions to correct a sequence of a display order of the media segment and the overlay content segments in an overlay content set.
