ABSTRACT:
The present invention is an audio transceiver (having an audio receiver and a transmitter) which, on the receiving side, adaptively controls the amount of audio data in the buffer of a PC audio device, such that the audio device always has something to play. On the transmission side, the audio transmitter provides at least sequence numbers to the audio packets to be sent. The audio receiver is concerned only with the state of the buffer of the audio device. Therefore, the audio transmitter does not have to be synchronized with the audio receiver.
