CONSTANT BIT RATE PADDING OF MPEG TRANSPORT STREAMS

摘要

A system and method for processing of MPEG transport streams. Specifically, the system may receive a variable bit rate input transport stream with one or more programs. The variable bit rate transport stream is converted into a constant bit rate stream with compliant Program Clock References. Null packets are added to the transport stream at suitable locations to pad it to a constant bit rate. Program clock reference packets are re-stamped to ensure all timing requirements are met.
