Abstract

Disclosed are various embodiments that facilitate fast switching of synchronized media using time-stamp management. A first media stream and multiple second media streams are obtained. The second media stream is time synchronized to the first media stream. The first media stream and one of the second media streams are decoded. Time-stamp management without decoding is performed for another one of the second media streams to facilitate fast switching to the other one of the second media streams when desired.
