A Practical Method for the Synchronization of Live Continuous Media Streams

نویسنده

  • Christian Blum
چکیده

One of the major problems in networked multimedia is the playout synchronization of continuous media streams. The sink of a set of transmitted media streams has to reestablish the presentation timing of samples within each stream (intra-stream synchronization) and among streams (inter-stream synchronization). In applications that include live human-to-human conversation there is the additional requirement that the delay between acquisition and presentation of media data be kept low. This article presents a method that allows to synchronize an arbitrary combination of live continuous media streams and at the same time maintain a minimal end-to-end delay. Emphasis is given to the description of an implementation of this method.

A Retransmission–Based Continuous Media Multicast Communication Scheme: The Effect of Buffering Time for Media Synchronization on Application–Level QoS

This paper proposes a retransmission–based error recovery scheme in multicast communications for live audio and video streams transferred over the Internet/intranets. The scheme is referred to as MRVTR (Multicast based on Retransmission with Virtual–Time Rendering). In order to suppress retransmission traffic, MRVTR adopts a method for controlling NACK (Negative Acknowledgment) transmission acc...

Video Synchronization in the Cloud Using Visible Light Communication

Video synchronization refers to time-based alignment of several audio/video streams. The growth of heterogeneous social media networks demands faster and more efficient synchronization methods that could satisfy the real-time requirements of media cloud. Although there are many techniques and methods for synchronization that have been in use or proposed, this thesis suggests a novel approach fo...

Live Media Synchronization Quality of a Retransmission-Based Error Recovery Scheme

This paper proposes a transport–layer error recovery scheme using retransmission for live audio–video streams transferred over QoS non-guaranteed networks. The scheme employs an enhanced version of the virtual–time rendering (VTR) media synchronization algorithm, which adjusts media rendering–time according to the network condition, and is referred to as RVTR (Retransmission with VTR) in this p...

ارائه روشی پویا جهت پاسخ به پرس‌وجوهای پیوسته تجمّعی اقتضایی

Data Streams are infinite, fast, time-stamp data elements which are received explosively. Generally, these elements need to be processed in an online, real-time way. So, algorithms to process data streams and answer queries on these streams are mostly one-pass. The execution of such algorithms has some challenges such as memory limitation, scheduling, and accuracy of answers. They will be more ...
