Abstract:
1. Method for transferring/receiving audio and/or video signals fulfilling the requirement to bridge synchronous and asynchronous networks and minimizing delay time over such networks comprising: analysing an active network interface or verifying which network interface is receiving and/or sending data; taking a synchronous-clock signal from the network and providing said synchronous-clock signal to a bitstream analyser; analysing a format of a multiplexed signal obtained from an audio codec; analysing an audio format; adapting an ISDN network clock to an IP network clock, and resulting in a clock-adapted digital signal; encoding said clock-adapted digital signal; adapting the encoded clock-adapted digital signal to IP datagrams as required by the network interface and by the active network itself in terms of protocols and packet size, resulting in a datagram signal; and taking the datagram signal and putting the datagram signal in an IP network.
