Abstract
A system and method for receiving a transported stream of data packets includes a buffer management device for receiving the data packets, unpacking the data packets, and forwarding a stream of data frames. The system and method further includes a first jitter buffer for receiving the data frames from the buffer management device and buffering the data frames, and a second jitter buffer for receiving the data frames from the buffer management device and buffering the data frames. In addition, the system and method includes a computationally-desirable jitter buffer selected from the first jitter buffer or the second jitter buffer by comparing a first jitter buffer quality and a second jitter buffer quality. The system and method also includes a decoder for receiving buffered data frames from the computationally-desirable jitter buffer.
