Abstract

A system for playing a digital signal is set forth that includes a receiver receiving a digital signal. System further includes a buffer storing the digital signal in a buffer. A controller determines a read rate and when the signal is interrupted. When the buffer is full, the buffer is read at about the input rate of the buffer. When the buffer is less than full, the buffer is read at a rate less than the input rate when the digital television signal is interrupted.
