Benefits of technology

The present invention has certain features and advantages that are described in the patent text. These features and advantages can be realized and obtained by using the instruments and combinations specifically outlined in the patent. The "technical effects" of the invention are not explicitly stated in this text, but they are intended to be revealed through the description and appended claims, or through practice of the invention as set forth herein.

Problems solved by technology

However, due to the decoding and re-encoding and to audio splicing, which involves audio delay, in order to insert advertisements, the PTS of the stream output by the transcoder may lose synchronization with the PTS input to the decoder and with the frame.

Abstract

A method, a video processing system, and an electronic device are disclosed. A video transcoder may decode a compressed video data frame creating a decoded video data frame. The video transcoder may embed a network presentation timestamp in the decoded video data frame. The video transcoder may re-encode the decoded video data frame creating a transcoded video data frame. A field programmable gate array may compare the network presentation timestamp with a transcoder presentation timestamp to determine a timestamp offset.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to a method and system for decoding and encoding video data frames. The present invention further relates to calculating a timestamp offset.BACKGROUND[0002]A video transcoder may receive a compressed video data frame to be converted into a format usable by a media device. The video transcoder may decode the compressed video data frame into an uncompressed intermediate format. The video transcoder may then re-encode the uncompressed intermediate video frame into a new format usable by the media device.[0003]Data channels passed through the transcoder may have Presentation timestamps (PTSs) embedded in the data to trigger time critical events, for example, advertisement insertion and data display. However, due to the decoding and re-encoding and to audio splicing, which involves audio delay, in order to insert advertisements, the PTS of the stream output by the transcoder may lose synchronization with the PTS input to the decod...
