Abstract

A method and apparatus for mixing first and second video content portions is described. The method may comprise overlapping at least one frame of a first content portion comprising multiple frames with at least one frame of a second content portion comprising multiple frames to produce a composite video content. At least one reference frame comprising a frame of the first or second content portion prior to the overlapping may be designated. The composite video content and the reference frame may then be transmitted, for example, to a client device. The client device may use the reference frame to at least reduce an effect of the overlapping.
