Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are described for media synchronization. Multi-stream media processes may include media streams captured with respect to different clock rates. Multi-processor implementations may involve separate clocks associated with different media streams, such as audio and video, respectively. The separate clocks may tend to drift from one another, becoming further out of sync as time passes. Selecting a reference time of one of the processors to function as a “wall clock,” recording frame capture times with respect to the reference time, accounting for propagation delays, and transmitting frame capture times in terms of the reference time may aid in AV synchronization at a device where audio and video streams are received.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for controlling isochronous data streams are disclosed. Particular aspects of the present disclosure are designed to be used with almost any isochronous data stream, but are well-suited for use with the Universal Serial Bus (USB) protocol. Further, aspects of the present disclosure are flexible to accommodate existing configuration possibilities within the USB protocol as well as accommodate proposed future changes in the USB protocol. The flexibility of the systems and methods is provided by calculating: (1) drift between a USB host system time and the application and (2) drift between the USB host system and a USB device clock. Based on these two drift calculations, a time stamp may be synthesized to program a next delivery schedule. Using this time stamp, jitter correction can take place and uniformly-sized packets may be assembled to pass to an application processor.
