Abstract

An apparatus can include an interface to receive and send inter-node communications messages with respect to at least one other node. A synchronization control can implement a synchronization protocol for controlling synchronization of content chunks generated for at least one content stream based on synchronization data. The synchronization control can determine the synchronization data for the content stream (i) based on synchronization information provided in an information message received from the other node if the other node has a greater priority or (ii) based on self-established synchronization information if the other node has a lower priority.
