More Information
Summary:Methods, systems, and computer readable media can be operable to facilitate the anticipatory acquisition of PMT information. A device may recognize a trigger within a transport stream, wherein the trigger indicates an audio/video transition and initiates a PMT acquisition by the device. Upon acquisition of the PMT, the device may process information carried by the transport stream after the audio/video transition. In embodiments, a device may acquire a PMT having information associated with a planned audio/video transition, wherein the information includes a time reference for when the audio/video transition will occur and information that may be used by the device to process information carried by the transport stream after the audio/video transition.
