Example methods disclosed herein to resolve media source detection ambiguities include detecting an ambiguity condition associated with media source detection when monitoring media presented by a media output device in communication with at least two media source devices, and in response to detecting the ambiguity condition, determining a source of the media output from the media output device using motion data reported by accelerometers affixed to remote control devices associated with the at least two media source devices. Example methods disclosed herein to resolve simulcast crediting ambiguities include detecting an ambiguity condition associated with simulcast broadcasting when monitoring media presented by a media output device, and in response to detecting the ambiguity condition, adjusting a time associated with a channel change using motion data reported by an accelerometer affixed to a remote control device associated with the media output device.
