Finite state automaton for control of frame error recovery for a universal serial bus video camera

摘要

A video apparatus and method are described for controlling video frame error recovery in a streaming video session. Frame error recovery is activated and deactivated by a frame error recovery automaton. Frame error recovery is activated by a first frame error in the video data stream. The automaton monitors the video session, maintaining recovery if a further error is detected. The automaton monitors the data stream for a predetermined frame error probation period.
