Abstract
A method and system are provided for synchronizing a digital video system that includes a transmitter, a receiver, and a decoder. A transport packet is received from the transmitter. At the start of receiving the transport packet, a system time clock timestamp is captured. A program clock reference timestamp is also obtained from the transport packet and is compared with the system time clock timestamp.
