An apparatus to deliver video over an Internet Protocol ("IP") network using multicast distribution and unicast correction. The apparatus includes a video receiver module, a multicast module, and a correction signal module. The video receiver module receives one or more videos formatted as IP packets at a first server. The multicast module streams the one or more videos to a user device over a first IP network using a multicast after a time delay. The correction signal module streams the one or more videos to a second server over a second IP network. The second server transmits requested IP packets of a video stream to the user device over a third IP network. The requested IP packets requested by the user device replace missing IP packets from the video stream. The requested IP packets may be combined with a received multicast video stream to form a corrected video stream.
