In an embodiment, a transmitting device transmits a real-time media stream for a real-time communication session to a set of target devices. At least one of the set of target devices detects a media reception gap in the real-time communication session, and transmits a rewind request to the transmitting device to trigger the transmitting device to generate and provide a time-delayed version of the real-time media stream that includes media lost during the media reception gap. The transmitting device generates a rewind stream based on the rewind request and transmits the rewind stream to the at least one target device.

Rewinding a real-time communication session

A user equipment (UE) selectively attempts recovery of lost media for a real-time communication session. In an embodiment, the UE detects presence of a lost media packet from another UE participating in the real-time communication session that did not successfully arrive at the UE. The UE evaluates a set of recovery criteria associated with the lost media packet to attempt to dynamically select at least one external source from a plurality of external sources from which the lost media packet can potentially be recovered at different predicted reliabilities and/or response times for attempting recovery of the lost media packet based on the set of recovery criteria. The UE attempts to recover the lost media packet from the selected at least one external source based on the evaluation.

Opportunistic media patching for a communication session

Methods and apparatus for performing a search procedure include determining, by a processor, that a current location identifier of a current network is the same as a stored location identifier corresponding to a transition to or from a home network. The methods and apparatus further include initiating the search procedure based on determining that the current location identifier is the same as the stored location identifier.
