Abstract

Provided is a platform for data devices in which the architecture and runtime parameters of the platform are adaptively updated based on real-time data collected about a network on which the platform operates, the source type (e.g., codec selection) for data being communicated between devices, the grouping/architecture of the devices, or any combination thereof. The platform is thus able to support multiple different types and configurations of data devices under varied, constantly-changing conditions. The platform offers a flexible architecture for a content management and rendering system in which multiple data devices connected via the network each play a unique role in the operation of the system. The data devices are capable of dynamically switching between different roles while the system is in active operation. The platform also includes adaptive delay capabilities as well as adaptive codec selection capabilities.
