TIME-SENSITIVE CONTENT MANIPULATION IN ADAPTIVE STREAMING BUFFER

摘要

A client device streams content from a streaming server via a buffer, with the content containing segments of requested content and segments of time-sensitive content (TSC). The client device scans metadata associated with the buffer to determine whether an instance of TSC in the buffer is optimal. Responsive to determining that a given instance of TSC in the buffer is not: optimal, replacing the given instance of TSC with a replacement instance of TSC stored on the client device.
