Abstract

A data processor for processing a data stream having audio and video data has an input buffer for buffering the data stream; a data stream analyzer for analyzing the data stream for finding information on a plurality of language-specific content in different languages; a queuing buffer for queuing a plurality of parallel queues, each queue having only language-specific content in the same language; and a feeder for feeding a selected queue in accordance with a language selection signal to a subsequent processing stage, wherein a non-selected queue is not fed by the feeder. Also disclosed are a corresponding method for processing a data stream and a computer-readable digital storage medium. The data processor or the method for processing a data stream reduces a delay experience by a user when switching from one language-specific content to another language-specific content in a different language, even if the processing is done on an architecture that needs ample data buffering to compensate for variations in the system load, such as a personal computer system with the standard operating system.
