Method, equipment and system for reducing media delay

A method for reducing a media delay, comprising:

• sending a media switching request for switching from a first media service to a second media service to a media processing unit;
• receiving a response message and a media stream of the second media service that are returned by the media processing unit, wherein the response message carries information for reducing the media delay by a media receiving unit, and the information comprises the number of delayed frames and/or frame delay time;
• and
• performing a quickening process on the media stream of the second media service according to the information for reducing the media delay carried in the response message.

An equipment for reducing a media delay, comprising:

• a second sending module, configured to send a media switching request for switching from a first media service to a second media service to a media processing unit;
• a second receiving module, configured to receive a response message and a media stream of the second media service that are returned by the media processing unit, wherein the response message carries information for reducing the media delay by a media receiving unit, and the information comprises the number of delayed frames and/or frame delay time;
• and
• a processing module, configured to perform a quickening process on the media stream of the second media service according to the information for reducing the media delay carried in the response message.

A system for reducing a media delay, comprising:

• a media processing unit, configured to receive a media switching request for switching from a first media service to a second media service sent from a media receiving unit;
• and send a response message and a media stream of the second media service to the media receiving unit according to the media switching request, wherein the response message comprises information for the media receiving unit to reduce the media delay, and the information for the media receiving unit to reduce the media delay comprises the number of delayed frames and/or frame delay time, so that the media receiving unit performs a media quickening process on the media stream of the second media service according to the received message comprising the information for reducing the media delay;
• and
• a media receiving unit, configured to send a media switching request for switching from a first media service to a second media service to a media processing unit;
• receive a response message and a media stream of the second media service that are returned by the media processing unit;
• and
• perform a quickening process on the media stream of the second media service according to the information for reducing the media delay carried in the response message.
