Abstract

A method and device for decoding a packetized data stream comprising packets is disclosed. Each packet comprises a header and a payload encapsulating an elementary stream. The method includes selecting an object header in the elementary stream, inserting a packetized data stream packet header before the object header and transferring the inserted packet header, the object header, and data of the packetized data stream consecutive to the object header to a packetized data stream parser. This is applicable to digital video systems and in particular to digital television decoders.
