Abstract
Techniques for synchronizing audio and video data being transferred from one device to another device are disclosed. According to one aspect of the present invention, a periodic signal is generated in a host device (e.g., a personal computer) and transferred to a thin device (e.g., a PC camera) via an interface (e.g., a USB). The periodic signal is used to adjust local clocks in the thin device to generate audio and video data. As a result, the audio and video data is synchronized. According to another aspect of the present invention, an error detection unit and a correction unit are provided to ensure that there is no error in the periodic signal being transferred from the host device. If an error is detected, a patch to the signal is generated.
