Abstract
A method for processing a media stream is proposed, which comprises, at a media distribution unit comprising a processor: upon receiving, from a player device, a request for a media data segment of the media content stream, determining a media data chunk of the one or more media data chunks that corresponds to the segment and is available for distribution to the player device; determining a bootstrapping file of the one or more bootstrapping files that corresponds to the media data chunk, wherein the I-type image of the bootstrapping file corresponds to an image of a media data chunk that precedes the media data chunk in the media data segment; generating a response media data chunk by combining the media data chunk and the bootstrapping file; and serving the request based on the response media data chunk by sending the response media data chunk to the player device.
