Abstract

Methods for generating a transport stream (e.g., an MPEG-2 transport stream) such that the transport stream has at least one perfect splicing property, and/or such that the transport stream is indicative of at least one audio/video program and includes metadata indicative of whether the program has a perfect splicing property. Other aspects are methods for splicing such a transport stream, audio/video processing units (e.g., splicers) configured to perform any embodiment of the inventive method, and audio/video processing units which include a buffer memory which stores at least one segment of transport stream generated in accordance with any embodiment of the inventive method.
