Abstract

See full text

Data received from a network can be routed to a datastream. One embodiment of the invention allows IP data to be transmitted via data packets that include a destination address for the data. The destination address can be used to identify a data stream, such as an MPEG PID stream which makes up part of a transport stream in a cable system. Thus, the MPEG PID stream/transport stream can be identified using an IP address and network mask, for example.
