Abstract:
A method and system for synchronizing two or more media streams, generated by different sources. An identifier generator generates identifiers with unique sequence numbers and a unique media identifier in relation to a second media stream generated by second media server. The generated identifiers are supplied to an encoder and an identifier storage. In the identifier storage a broadcaster stores an associated URL (first media server address & content) with a particular identifier. The identifiers and the second media stream are encoded by the encoder into a carrier which is recorded or broadcasted. Play-out of the recorded or broadcasted is accomplished by feeding the encoded carrier to a decoder, which decodes the identifiers and the second media stream. The decoded identifier is received by a first device that retrieves the stored associated URL for the particular identifier and subsequently request first media server for the first media stream indicated by the associated URL. The first media stream is provided to the first device, which is also provided with the decoded second media stream.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of synchronizing two different media streams, the method comprising:\n decoding a primary media stream to obtain a media stream identifier for the primary media steam, and a plurality of sequence numbers indicating respective locations in the primary media stream, the plurality of sequence numbers comprising at least a first sequence number and a second sequence number different from the first sequence number; determining, based on the media stream identifier:\n a first action type and a first action indicator, each associated with the first sequence number, wherein the first action type is a command for executing any action indicators associated with the first action type; and \n a second action type and a second action indicator, each associated with the second sequence number, wherein the second action type is a command different than the first action type for executing any action indicators associated with the second action type; and \n synchronizing, with the primary media stream, a secondary media stream identified by at least one of the first action indicator and the second action indicator by:\n retrieving the secondary media stream in accordance with executing the first action type and the second action type; and \n synchronizing the retrieved secondary media stream with the primary media stream.
