ABSTRACT:
An audio/video media server for distributed editing over networks receives requests from clients on the networks that include a clip identifier, a delivery destination identifier and the frame numbers from the clip desired. The media server parses the requests and asynchronously accesses a file system to retrieve the requested media frames from a storage medium. The retrieved media frames are asynchronously transferred to a FIFO buffer, and a clock rate for a local clock is adjusted according to the fullness of the buffer. The media frames from the buffer are sent in the form of data packets over the networks in response to interrupts generated by the local clock. In this manner the timing for the media frames is controlled by the clients to assure a continuous stream of video during editing.
