A method of generating program clock reference values for a digital data stream is provided. The program clock reference value will preferably include a 33-bit base and a 9-bit extension. The method comprises the steps of receiving an input digital data stream having a pixel clock frequency, dividing the input frequency of the pixel clock and producing a counter clock that increments at a rate proportional to the pixel clock, multiplying the counter clock by a rational number to produce a number that indicates time expressed in 27 MHz periods and inputting the resulting value into a divider which divides every input by 300 to produce a quotient representing the Program Clock Reference value base and the remainder representing the Program Clock Reference value extension. A PCR generator for use in, for example, an MPEG encoder is also provided.
