Method and apparatus for changing received streaming content channels |
摘要 |
An apparatus and method is disclosed in which a buffer receives a first content stream (201) carrying a content channel signal. The first content stream (201) carries the content channel signal at a rate substantially greater than the streaming content playout rate, for initially loading the buffer. The buffer switches its reception of the content channel signal from the first content stream (201) to a second content stream (202). The second content stream (202) is at a rate substantially the same as the streaming content playout rate. Generally, this switch occurs when some predefined threshold of the content channel signal is buffered. <IMAGE> |
