Abstract
A media file may comprise a plurality of frames, each frame having a header that stores systems level information associated with the media file. A first portion of a frame that comprises the systems level information and a second portion of the frame that comprises the media content itself may be determined for one or more frames of the media file. A compressed header may be generated that comprises a subset of the systems level information associated with the media content of the frame. The compressed header may be generated by removing or compressing information that is determined to be redundant across the frames. The compressed header, as well as information for reconstructing the first frame based on the compressed header, may be sent to a device instead of the first portion of the frame, thereby reducing transmission bandwidth and storage requirements of the media file.
