Abstract
An electronic apparatus and a controlling method thereof are provided. The electronic apparatus includes a buffer configured to store audio data of an audio stream; and a processor configured to decode the audio data stored in the buffer, wherein the processor is further configured to determine a reproducing time corresponding to the audio data stored in the buffer, compare the reproducing time and a predetermined reproducing time, and control a storage amount of the audio data in the buffer so that an amount of the audio data corresponding to the predetermined reproducing time can be maintained in the buffer.
Claims15
An electronic apparatus comprising:
- a buffer storing audio data of an audio stream;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- identify a reproducing time length of the audio data stored in the buffer,
- compare the identified reproducing time length of the audio data stored in the buffer and a preset constant time length, and
- control an amount of the audio data in the buffer so that the reproducing time length of the audio data stored in the buffer corresponds to the preset constant time length,
- wherein the processor is further configured to, in response to a user command for reproducing second audio data being received while first audio data is being reproduced, remove the first audio data stored in the buffer and store, in the buffer, the second audio data corresponding to the preset constant time length.
A method of controlling an electronic apparatus, the method comprising:
- storing audio data of an audio stream in a buffer;
- identifying a reproducing time length of the audio data stored in the buffer;
- comparing the identified reproducing time length of the audio data stored in the buffer and a preset constant time length;
- and
- controlling an amount of the audio data in the buffer so that the reproducing time length of the audio data in the buffer corresponds to the preset constant time length,
- wherein the method further comprises, in response to a user command for reproducing second audio data being received while first audio data is being reproduced, removing the first audio data stored in the buffer and storing, in the buffer, the second audio data corresponding to the preset constant time length.
A non-transitory computer readable record medium storing a program instructions that are executed by a computer to perform a method of controlling an electronic apparatus, the method comprising:
- storing audio data of an audio stream in a buffer;
- identifying a reproducing time length of the audio data stored in the buffer;
- comparing the identified reproducing time length of the audio data stored in the buffer and a preset constant time length;
- and
- controlling an amount of the audio data in the buffer so that the reproducing time length of the audio data in the buffer corresponds to the preset constant time length,
- wherein the method further comprises, in response to a user command for reproducing second audio data being received while first audio data is being reproduced, removing the first audio data stored in the buffer and storing, in the buffer, the second audio data corresponding to the preset constant time length.
