Method and apparatus for trick mode operation of a personal video recorder over a network

摘要

Exemplary embodiments of methods and apparatuses to project personal video recorder ("PVR") trick mode operations over a network are described. A first content stream may be at a first speed. A request to access the first content stream at a second speed can be received. A second content stream can be generated based on a second speed. The second content stream can be send over a network to be rendered at the first speed by a client device. One or more anchor frames in the first content stream are selected. The second content stream is generated based on the one or more anchor frames. One or more dummy frames can be inserted into the second content stream. Indexing information can be generated to create a second content stream to send over the network.
