Abstract

See full text

An over-air media server obtains first media content, including external content stored in a location external to the over-air media server, and delivers it for broadcast via on-air broadcast chain. A streaming media server is in communication with the over-air media server and a streaming broadcast chain. The streaming media server operates in a synchronized mode, during which it delivers, under control of the over-air media server, second media content to a streaming broadcast chain. The streaming server transitions from the synchronized mode to an independent mode, during which it delivers the second media content to the streaming broadcast chain independent of control by over-air media server. While operating in the independent mode the streaming media server obtains the second media content, including obtaining external content, from the same location from which over-air media server obtains its external content. The second media content is delivered to the streaming broadcast chain independent of control by the over-air media server.
