  • Patent number: 7634169
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method to reproduce, on at least one client terminal, at least one data flow comprising a plurality of encoded entities, each associated with at least one composition time stamp, said method comprising steps of decoding said flow(s), so as to obtain at least one decoded flow comprising a plurality of decoded entities, and composing of said decoded entities, at the times defined by said composition time stamps. According to the invention, for at least one of said encoded entities, said decoding step is anticipated with respect to said composition time stamp, if a composition context associated with said encoded entity is identical to a current composition context.

  • Publication number: 20050086684
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method to reproduce, on at least one client terminal, at least one data flow comprising a plurality of encoded entities, each associated with at least one composition time stamp, said method comprising steps consisting of: decoding said flow(s), so as to obtain at least one decoded flow comprising a plurality of decoded entities; composing of said decoded entities, at the times defined by said composition time stamps. According to the invention, for at least one of said encoded entities, said decoding step is anticipated with respect to said composition time stamp, if a composition context associated with said encoded entity verifies at least one predetermined criterion.
