Abstract
An approach is provided that a number of incoming packets over a computer network. The packets are part of a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) session and correspond to vocalizations spoken by a sender during the session. At least one of the packets is received out of order from the order the packets were sent by the sender. Based on a delay encountered during the receiving of the incoming packets, the approach increases a playback speed. The set of packets are then used to audibly play an analog rendition of the vocalizations to the receiving user at the increased playback speed.
