摘要

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for streaming media to a plurality of adaptive client devices. In one aspect there is provided a method of providing a media stream over data channel of a best effort transmission network that includes a wireless path to a plurality of client devices. In another aspect there is provided a method of encoding a stream of data into chunks, whereby the chunks are obtained by determining a break point between them that corresponds to a silence point. In another aspect, there is provided a method for creating a library of encoded media for a media stream and linking the library to a plurality of cell phone devices.
