Patent ID: 8499323

Claim:
A mobile communication device comprising: receiver circuitry operable to receive broadcast real-time media data over a communication interface; and signal processing logic operable to extract real-time media content from the broadcast real-time media data, and to output the extracted real-time media content via a user interface of the mobile communication device, wherein, in response to determining at least a partial loss of real-time media content extracted from the broadcast real-time media data, the signal processing logic is operable to: attempt to establish a unicast connection with a serving communication unit via the communication interface, over which to receive second real-time media data, and from which to extract second real-time media content for outputting via the user interface; and in response to the signal processing logic being unable to establish the unicast connection over which to receive the second real-time media data, the signal processing logic is further operable to: retrieve stored media content from a memory element of the mobile communication device that is different from the real-time media content, and to output the retrieved media content via the user interface of the mobile communication device.
