Abstract

The customer premises equipment apparatus includes a communication component, a determining component and a filtering component. The communication component pulls a first chunk of headend guide data from a headend guide data provider using HTTP streaming. The first chunk of headend guide data contains a plurality of frames, some of which may be filler frames. The determining component determines whether at least one of the frames within the first chunk of headend guide data includes filler frames. The filtering component removes the frames that correspond to filler frames.
