Abstract
Systems, methods, and devices for generating a constant bitrate (CBR) transport stream in manners that facilitate subsequent reconstruction, and for performing such reconstruction are disclosed herein. For example, generating a CBR transport stream may include for each payload packets: sampling a clock source to obtain a clock sample; and inserting an encoding of the clock sample in a stuffing area of a header of the payload packet. For example, reconstructing a CBR transport stream may include receiving a plurality of packets of a variable bitrate (VBR) transport stream; for a pair of adjacent packets in the VBR transport stream: extracting a clock sample from a header of each of the pair adjacent packets; computing a delta between the clock samples; and inserting one or more null packets between the adjacent packets based on the computed delta and a timing metric corresponding to a bitrate of the CBR transport stream.
