Abstract :
This paper introduces a novel network-based approach to inter-destination media synchronization. The approach meets the need for synchronization in advanced TV concepts like social TV and offers high scalability, unlike conventional end-point based approaches. The solution for inter-destination media synchronization has been standardized in upcoming ETSI protocol standards for IPTV. This paper explains the inner workings of this standardized solution.
