Patent ID: 7830968

Claim:
A receiver comprising: (a) a first input for receiving a packetized input data stream comprised of multiplexed and compressed packets, each of said packets having at least header and payload data; (b) a second input for receiving an analog signal; (c) a decoder unit partitioning said packetized data stream to generate a video component and an audio component; (d) a processor processing said analog signal to generate a digitized audio signal and a digitized video signal; (e) first digital signal processing arrangement decompressing said video component of said packetized data stream, and digital signal processing said decomposed video component and said digitized video signal to generate a video output signal; (f) second digital signal processing arrangement decompressing said audio component of said packetized data stream, and digital signal processing said decompressed audio component and said digitized audio signal to generate an audio output signal; (g) a delay selectively delaying the audio output signal for the digitized audio signal to synchronize an audible audio signal with a displayable video signal; and (h) a converting arrangement transposing said video output signal to the displayable video signal and said audio output signal to the audible output signal.
