Abstract
In a client/server network system, multimedia content is streamed from one or more servers to the client. The multimedia content includes multiple media streams that can be streamed to the client from the same server or from different servers. The user is able to modify the playback speed of the multimedia content, allowing the playback to be either speeded up or slowed down.
