Abstract
A method for generating a transition stream and processing video, audio or other data within the transition stream using, respectively, pixel domain processing, audio domain processing or other data domain processing.
Claims26
A method for generating a transition stream for transitioning from a first transport stream to a second transport stream in a substantially seamless manner, said method comprising the steps of:
- decoding a portion of said first transport stream including at least a target out-frame representing a last image frame of said first transport stream to be presented;
- decoding a portion of said second transport stream including at least a target in-frame representing a first image frame of said second transport stream to be presented;
- processing, using a pixel domain process, at least one of said decoded image frames;
- and
- encoding a plurality of said decoded image frames, including said target out-frame and said target in-frame, to produce said transition stream.

- decoding a portion of said first transport stream including at least a target out-frame representing a last image frame of said first transport stream to be presented, said decoded portion including non-video data associated with at least one decoded image frame of said first transport stream;
- decoding a portion of said second transport stream including at least a target in-frame representing a first image frame of said second transport stream to be presented, said decoded portion including non-video data associated with at least one decoded image frame of said second transport stream;
- encoding a plurality of said decoded image frames, including said target out-frame and said target in-frame, to produce said transition stream;
- and
- inserting, into said transition stream, said extracted non-video data.
