20130166772 | Buffering Media Content - Media content is downloaded on a media device. Portions of the media content are buffered successively during the download in a buffer on the device. During the buffering, the buffered portions are read for playback. In the buffer, a non-write buffer region trails behind a current playback read position. Upon the buffering reaching an end of the buffer, the buffering of media content is continued between a buffer beginning and the non-write buffer region. | 06-27-2013 |
