A processor implemented method for enhancing Quality of experience, QoE, of video reception at a receiver, comprising: receiving, from a transmitter, a signal comprising a plurality of frames associated with a live interactive video stream, each frame of the plurality of frames comprising a set of packets, via one or more hardware processors; determining, in a frame from amongst the plurality of frames, a position of a set of non-critical packets from amongst the set of packets lost during the receiving of the signal, via the one or more hardware processors, wherein the position of the set of non-critical packets is indicative of a spatial distribution of loss at a play-out deadline associated with the received signal, wherein determining the spatial distribution of loss comprises: determining an expected number of the plurality of packets to be received in a play-out buffer associated with the receiver for the frame scheduled to be played in an immediately next play-out instant; determining the number of lost packets during the transmission based on the expected number of plurality of packets to be received and number of actual packets received at the receiver; estimating the position of the lost packets from the sequence of packets received in the play-out buffer; and determining whether the lost packets are within a last threshold K% of the total packets in the frame to determine the spatial distribution of loss; and determining whether to render the frame based on the determination of the position of the set of non-critical packets lost, via the one or more hardware processors. receiving, from a transmitter, a signal comprising a plurality of frames associated with a live interactive video stream, each frame of the plurality of frames comprising a set of packets, via one or more hardware processors; determining, in a frame from amongst the plurality of frames, a position of a set of non-critical packets from amongst the set of packets lost during the receiving of the signal, via the one or more hardware processors, wherein the position of the set of non-critical packets is indicative of a spatial distribution of loss at a play-out deadline associated with the received signal, wherein determining the spatial distribution of loss comprises: determining an expected number of the plurality of packets to be received in a play-out buffer associated with the receiver for the frame scheduled to be played in an immediately next play-out instant; determining the number of lost packets during the transmission based on the expected number of plurality of packets to be received and number of actual packets received at the receiver; estimating the position of the lost packets from the sequence of packets received in the play-out buffer; and determining whether the lost packets are within a last threshold K% of the total packets in the frame to determine the spatial distribution of loss; and determining an expected number of the plurality of packets to be received in a play-out buffer associated with the receiver for the frame scheduled to be played in an immediately next play-out instant; determining the number of lost packets during the transmission based on the expected number of plurality of packets to be received and number of actual packets received at the receiver; estimating the position of the lost packets from the sequence of packets received in the play-out buffer; and determining whether the lost packets are within a last threshold K% of the total packets in the frame to determine the spatial distribution of loss; and determining whether to render the frame based on the determination of the position of the set of non-critical packets lost, via the one or more hardware processors.
