Abstract
A method for synchronizing stream processing with a locally generated system time clock is disclosed. A program clock reference is recovered from a transport layer and used to vary the frequency of the locally generated system time clock. A presentation time stamp is recovered from a packetized elementary stream derived from the transport layer. The relationship between a reference sample associated with the presentation time stamp from the packetized elementary stream and a current sample being streamed is determined relative to the system time clock. Data samples are added or subtracted from a stream of data samples being streamed in response to the step of determining to establish a relationship between the stream of samples and the presentation time stamp relative to the system time clock.
