ABSTRACT:
An implementation, as described herein, facilitates fast start-up of a new media stream while mitigating and in some implementations, avoiding temporal interruption (i.e., “stutter”) of the presentation of that new media stream. At least one implementation, described herein, measures a rate at which a multimedia stream is received at a downstream component configured to present the multimedia to a user; and, ascertains a duration of time to buffer the received multimedia before presentation thereof, at least in part utilizing the measured rate.
