SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF ASSEMBLING AN ELEMENTARY STREAM FROM AN ENCAPSULATED MULTIMEDIA TRANSPORT STREAM

摘要

Systems and methods of assembling an elementary stream from an encapsulat ed multimedia transport stream are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method is performed in a digital home communication terminal (DHCT). This method co mprises the steps of: receiving a layer-2 packet through a binding to a netw ork interface driver; applying at least one filter to the received packet to determine whether the received packet contains one or more multimedia trans port packets meeting criteria associated with the filter; and for each multi media transport packet meeting the applied filter criteria, copying the resp ective multimedia transport packet to an elementary stream buffer.
