Abstract
Maintaining timing relationships among packets in a single media stream or between packets from different media streams is an essential criterion in MMT system. It is the function of the synchronization and de-jittering algorithms to re-adjust timing relationship between the MMT packets to assure synchronized playback. Thus, delivery of time constrained MPEG media on time, according to their temporal requirements, is an important goal of MMT. For this purpose MMT needs to specify syntax and semantics of a timing model to be used by the delivery functions. In this paper, we propose a proper timestamp-related header format for MMT delivery timing model to support media synchronization in various delivery scenarios including hybrid delivery.
