VIDEO STREAM TRANSMISSION OVER IP NETWORK

摘要

A system includes a first buffer that stores first media packets therein received from a first media stream. A second buffer stores second media packets therein received from a second media stream. The first media stream and the second media stream include redundant media content. A combiner reads media packets from each of the first and second buffers, and the combiner discards a given duplicate media packet read from one of the first or second buffers that has been identified as being identical to another of the media packets read from the other of the buffers based on analysis of a predetermined identifier in each of the media packets read from the first and second buffers. The combiner provides an output stream of media packets that includes only one of the identical media packets read from the first and second buffers.

1. A system comprising:
a first buffer that stores first media packets therein received from a first media stream; a second buffer that stores second media packets therein received from a second media stream, the first media stream and the second media stream including redundant content that is transmitted separately; and a combiner that reads media packets from each of the first and second buffers, the combiner discarding a given duplicate media packet read from one of the first or second buffers that has been identified as being identical to another of the media packets read from the other of the buffers based on analysis of a predetermined identifier in each of the media packets read from the first and second buffers, such that the combiner provides an output stream of packets that includes only one of the identical media packets read from the first and second buffers.
