Abstract
A synchronisation of the presentation or reproduction of video data with audio data is described, which data each are processed on two non-synchronised computers. An MPEG-type stream is separated into video data and audio data, wherein the video data is processed utilising the first processing means and the audio data is timestamped and forwarded to the second processing means which compares the received time-stamp to the local time. The transmission time periods of sending audio data packets from the first processing means to the second processing means are calculated based on the local system time and timestamp is inserted into the audio data packets. Subsequently, synchronised audio and video presentation or reproduction is performed.
