METHOD FOR DYNAMIC ADAPTATION OF THE RECEPTION BITRATE AND ASSOCIATED RECEIVER

摘要

The invention discloses a method for reception of an audio-visual programme transmitted via portions over a network, the method using a real-time transport protocol and a real-time control protocol between a server and a receiver, the audio-visual programme being available on the server in a plurality of versions corresponding to the programme coded in different resolutions and enabling its transmission at different bitrates according to requests of the receiver. The method comprising a regular measurement of the bandwidth of the network by the receiver in order to adjust the transmission bitrate according to the state of the network.
