Abstract

A technique for making media content in the form of encoded data items decodable by a decoder operating in accordance with a scalable coding protocol that defines two or more media layers is provided. A method implementation of this technique comprises the steps of generating one or more dummy data items that define a first media layer of the scalable coding protocol, and marking the encoded data items as belonging, to a second media layer of the scalable coding protocol.
