Adaptive video slew rate for video delivery

A remote device that receives packetized video data from a video core through a packet-switched network, the device comprising:

• a clock configured to allow operation in asynchronous mode;
• a dejitter buffer that receives the video data from the packet-switched network and when operating in async mode outputs the video data to at least one module that adjusts the video data before sending the video data in a downstream direction;
• a processing device that when operating in async mode, applies a slew rate adjustment to the clock and the dejitter buffer, the slew rate adjustment varying over time based on a measured state of the dejitter buffer.
