Abstract
There is provided an apparatus and method for streaming MPEG-1 data in which, when the MPEG-1 data is transmitted through the network, the MPEG-1 data is converted into intermediate data, a server transfers the intermediate data in the form of packet with synchronizing video intermediate data and audio intermediate data with each other, thereby allowing a client to be able to receive and process the intermediate data with a simple conversion. The apparatus includes: an MPEG-1 system stream decoder for decoding the system stream of an MPEG-1 file; a YUV data generator for converting a videos stream transmitted from the MPEG-1 system stream decoder into YUV data as intermediate data; a PCM data generator for converting an audio stream transmitted from the MPEG-1 system stream decoder into PCM data; and an MPEG-1 intermediate data server for synchronizing the YUV data and PCM data, respectively generated by the YUV data generator and PCM data generator, with a YUV PTS and PCM PTS obtained from the MPEG-1 system stream decoder and a system clock, to transmit them to the client.
