Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a series of a series of audio-and-video segment pairs in a live video feed. The series of audio-and-video segment pairs is traversed, comparing the end-time of a current audio-and-video segment with the start-time of the next audio-and-video segment pair, in the sequence, and identifying any time gap between consecutive audio-and-video segment pairs. When a time gap is identified, the end-time of a current segment pair is subtracted from the start time of the next segment-pair to define an offset time, and subsequent start times of segment pairs in the sequence are adjusted based on this offset time. If after adjusting a start time of the next segment-pair by the offset time, a gap in the audio segment remains, then the gap is filled with an encoded silence sequence.
