SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR REAL-TIME ADAPTATION OF MULTIMEDIA DATA

摘要

A computer-implemented method for real-time adaptation of multimedia data. A first multimedia stream is monitored. A determination is made as to whether an attribute of the first multimedia stream satisfies a predefined threshold. When the attribute of the first multimedia stream satisfies the predefined threshold a request is made to a switch from the first multimedia stream to a second multimedia stream. When the data packet from the second multimedia stream is received, transmission of the first multimedia stream is terminated. The data packet from the second multimedia stream is marked as a splicing point. When the value of the timestamp of the data packet from the second multimedia stream is determined in relation to the value of the timestamp of the data packet from the first multimedia stream, transmission of the second multimedia stream is initiated.
