Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and devices for seamless switching between multiple source streams. Systems include a transmitter that includes encoders configured to generate and encode media streams for transmission. Systems also include a receiver configured to receive the media streams. The receiver includes decoders configured to receive and decode the media streams for display at a display unit. The systems may also include a buffer configured to buffer at least some of the media streams, the streams including at least one primary media stream and at least one secondary media stream, the buffer being configured to provide the a primary media stream to a decoder, and the buffer being further configured to buffer and discard the a secondary media stream. The systems also include a controller configured to switch the buffer to provide a secondary media stream to a decoder responsive to identifying a request for a switch event.
