Abstract

In one embodiment, a network device analyzes an encoded stream to identify a timing value included in a packet before a splice point. Next, the device determines a difference between identified timing value and a timing value included in a packet of the encoded segment to be spliced. In conjunction with splicing, the network device formats timing values of packets according to the determined difference, which improves play out of the spliced stream.
