Abstract
The invention relates to a method for reception of a data stream, transmitted in segment in one or several broadcast channels, comprising a reception step for the data in a segment of data stream transmitted by an active broadcast channel. A step for changing reception channel allows switching from the current broadcast channel to a second channel after receipt of the data stream. A listening step on said second channel listens for an event identifying the transmission of the subsequent segment of the data stream and a step for changing reception channel by switching from said second channel to the current broadcast channel or another broadcast channel.
