Abstract
The invention relates to a method for the delivery of audio and video data by a server device. A network can interconnect various media components in the same home. Such a network comprises a server, generally a computer, and clients, for example a decoder. This configuration offers the possibility of creating a desktop managed by the server but remotely controlled by the client via the network. Such a network must transmit data and process them rapidly. Currently, the trend is to compress the data traveling through the network as much as possible. However, the more these data are compressed, the longer they take to process. The invention does not provide for facilitating the transfer of the data but for reducing the time required to process the data flowing through the network.
