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.
