Abstract
A method and device for streaming multimedia data over a communication network. Data associated with multimedia content is received over the communication network. Portions of the data are processed into multiple data blocks. The multiple data blocks are associated with multiple segments by associating each segment with at least two data blocks of the multiple data blocks. The segments of the multiple segments are sequenced according to a stream index. The stream index is assigned to a main index that describes a set of streams for the multimedia content.
Claims6
A method for streaming multimedia data over a communication network, said method comprising:
- receiving, by one or more processors of a device, data associated with multimedia content over the communication network;
- processing, by the one or more processors, portions of the data into multiple data blocks;
- associating, by the one or more processors, the multiple data blocks with multiple segments by associating each segment with at least two data blocks of the multiple data blocks;
- sequencing, by the one or more processors, the segments of the multiple segments according to a stream index;
- and
- assigning, by the one or more processors, the stream index to a main index that describes a set of streams for the multimedia content.
A device, comprising one or more processors and a computer readable hardware storage device, said storage devive containing program instructions executable by the one or more processors to implement a method for streaming multimedia data over a communication network, said method comprising:
- receiving, by the one or more processors, data associated with multimedia content over the communication network;
- processing, by the one or more processors, portions of the data into multiple data blocks;
- associating, by the one or more processors, the multiple data blocks with multiple segments by associating each segment with at least two data blocks of the multiple data blocks;
- sequencing, by the one or more processors, the segments of the multiple segments according to a stream index;
- and
- assigning, by the one or more processors, the stream index to a main index that describes a set of streams for the multimedia content.
A computer program product, comprising a computer readable hardware storage device having computer readable program instructions stored therein, said program instructions executable by one or more processors of a device to implement a method for streaming multimedia data over a communication network, said method comprising:
- receiving, by the one or more processors, data associated with multimedia content over the communication network;
- processing, by the one or more processors, portions of the data into multiple data blocks;
- associating, by the one or more processors, the multiple data blocks with multiple segments by associating each segment with at least two data blocks of the multiple data blocks;
- sequencing, by the one or more processors, the segments of the multiple segments according to a stream index;
- and
- assigning, by the one or more processors, the stream index to a main index that describes a set of streams for the multimedia content.
