    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for detecting timestamp discontinuities and video resolution discontinuities within a packet stream and marking locations of the detected discontinuities within the packet stream are described. Prior to transmission of the packet stream, an electronic device may perform timestamp discontinuity detection by acquiring a sequence of packets to be transmitted, identifying a first timestamp associated with an earliest packet within the sequence of packets, identifying a second timestamp associated with a latest packet within the sequence of packets, determining a timestamp time difference between the first timestamp and the second timestamp, determining a maximum chunk time difference based on a data rate at which the sequence of packets were encoded and a data size of the encoded packets, and detecting that a timestamp discontinuity exists within the sequence of packets if the timestamp time difference is greater than the maximum chunk time difference.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for improving the delivery of streamed audiovisual content derived from over-the-air digital television signals by reducing streaming start latency are described. In response to detecting a request from a client device to begin a streaming session for a video stream captured by an over-the-air antenna, a streaming device in communication with the client device via a wired or wireless networking connection may transmit a reduced resolution version of the video stream to the client device, establish encryption and decryption keys for a secure connection with the client device while the reduced resolution version of the video stream is transmitted to the client device, communicate a point in time after which an encrypted version of the video stream will be transmitted to the client device, and transmit the encrypted version of the video stream to the client device starting at the point in time.
