Individual Buffer Management in Transport of Scalable Video

摘要

A method is provided to determine buffer parameter settings for a plurality of layers in a transport stream. Each layer includes a respective transport stream buffer parameter setting. Then, the method provides respective transport stream buffer parameter settings to individual transport stream buffers for respective layers in the plurality of layers. Then, the method buffers the respective layers in the individual transport stream buffers according to the respective transport stream buffer parameter settings. After buffering, the method combines the respective layers to form a combined bit stream.

1. A method of managing a plurality of transport stream buffers, the method comprising:
determining buffer parameter settings for a plurality of layers in a transport stream, wherein each layer includes a respective transport stream buffer parameter setting; providing respective transport stream buffer parameter settings to individual transport stream buffers for respective layers in the plurality of layers; buffering the respective layers in the individual transport stream buffers according to the respective transport stream buffer parameter settings; and after buffering, combining the respective layers to form a combined bitstream; wherein the transport stream is at least partially derived from a respective video stream having a plurality of layers, each video stream layer including a respective video stream buffer parameter setting.
