Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a live streaming quick start method and system, which belong to streaming media technology. The method comprises: slicing, by a server, an audio-video stream into slice files, and assigning a sequence number to each generated slice file according to timestamps of the audio-video stream; recording, by the server, key frame information of the audio-video stream; determining, by the server, an initial slice file sequence number in response to a live streaming request sent by a player client; based on the initial slice file sequence number and the recorded audio-video stream key frame information, transmitting, by the server, a start-streaming response file and the initial slice file sequence number to the player client; and resetting, by the player client, timestamps for the start-streaming response file based on a key frame closest to the initial slice file, and decoding and playing the start-streaming response file.

Abstract: An audio signal enhancement method includes: acquiring an audio signal; estimating a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of an audio frame of the audio signal; determining a SNR threshold for the audio frame; selecting an audio signal processing technique according to a comparison of the SNR threshold to the estimated SNR of the audio frame; filtering the audio frame using a Wiener filter applying the selected signal processing technique; and outputting the audio frame filtered using the Wiener filter applying the selected signal processing technique. A first-in, first-out (FIFO) signal processing technique is selected when the estimated SNR of the audio frame is less than the SNR threshold, and a log-energy voice activity detection (VAD) signal processing technique is selected when the estimated SNR of the audio frame is greater than the SNR threshold.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a peer-to-peer network live streaming system, comprising at least two nodes and a first server. The first server is used to establish a connection between the nodes to enable the nodes to share node information. At least either of the nodes is configured with an evaluation module and a purging module. The evaluation module calculates and analyzes a health value for the corresponding connected node based on the node information, and feeds the result to the purging module to determine whether to continue to use or purge the evaluated node.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a live streaming method, and an apparatus and system thereof. The method, system, and apparatus include initializing a delay window; according to the delay window, requesting a resource slice within a range of the delay window; determining whether a result of a first request for the resource slice within the range of the delay window is successful; accumulating a number of consecutive failures of the first request for the resource slice within the delay window and; when the number of failures reaches a preset threshold, sliding the delay window to limit a requesting speed of a playback terminal. The disclosure provides a technical solution that can promptly perceive a delay in the playback environment. Through sliding the delay window, the requesting speed of the playback terminal can be limited, thereby to avoid that the playback is frequently stopped on the playback terminal.
