The invention relates to the transmission of a data stream having an adaptable bitrate, referred to as data bitrate, via a transmission channel having a variable channel transmission rate. The receiver comprises a reception buffer and a decoder. According to the invention; a) a risk of data starvation and a risk of data overflow in said reception buffer are estimated; b) an estimation of the current channel transmission rate is calculated; c) an adaption of said data bitrate depending on said estimation of the current channel transmission rate is triggered if there is a risk of data starvation or a risk of data overflow. |
