  • Apparatus, system and method for synchronized playback of data transmitted over an asynchronous network
    Publication number: 20050166135
    Abstract: An apparatus, system and method for synchronizing the playback of data transmitted over an asynchronous network. An initialization module may initialize at least two receivers to receive playback data from a transmission module. The transmission module may then transmit to the receivers the playback data, and, in some embodiments, synchronization data. Synchronization data may include a playback indicator by which the receivers may determine an appropriate playback data consumption rate. A buffer module may buffer a predetermined amount of playback data which may be played in response to a start signal individually addressed to the receivers.
