Signal processing system

A source apparatus for a signal processing system, said system comprising a source apparatus coupled to a destination apparatus by means of a bus operable according to a time-slot allocation protocol, the source apparatus being arranged for supplying the destination apparatus with a sequence of packets, each of said packets comprising a time-stamp, characterized in that the source apparatus comprising means for supplying the packets to the destination apparatus via the bus;

• and means for supplying a first and a second part of at least one of the packets in different time-slots.

A destination apparatus for a signal processing system, the system comprising a source apparatus coupled to a destination apparatus by means of a bus operable according to a time-slot allocation protocol, the destination apparatus receiving a sequence of packets from the source apparatus, each of said packets comprising a time-stamp, the destination apparatus comprising a clock;

• means for receiving the packets;
• means for detecting when a time-value of the clock corresponds to the time-stamp in a particular packet;
• and means for presenting data from that particular packet at an output, characterized in that a first part and a second part of at least one of the packets are supplied in different time-slots, and the destination apparatus comprises means for presenting data from the first part and the second part together upon detecting when the time-value of the clock corresponds to the time-stamp in the at least one of the packets.
