More Information
Summary:A buffer model in an HTTP streaming client may include receiving a first content fragment of a first content stream in response to a first HTTP request. It may also include receiving a second content fragment of a second content stream in response to a second HTTP request. The buffer model may further include storing the first and second content fragments in first and second buffers of a plurality of configurable buffers. The first and second content fragments may be multiplexed into a third buffer of the plurality of buffers. The multiplexed first and second content fragments may be stored in a fourth buffer of the plurality of buffers for playback. The buffer model may be implemented by an application. The buffers may be designed based on one or more constraints.
