Abstract
System and method indicating delays added to packets due to retransmission events. The method includes the steps of receiving multiple packet streams and multiplexing them into a first multiplexed packet stream; storing in memory the first multiplexed packet stream together with time indications; receiving a retransmission request and selecting data for retransmission; multiplexing the first multiplexed packet stream and the data for retransmission into a second multiplexed packet stream; utilizing the time indications for calculating delays that were added to packets of the second multiplexed packet stream as a result of fulfilling the retransmission request; adding the calculated delays to at least some of the packets of the second multiplexed packet stream; and transmitting the second multiplexed packet stream.
