Abstract
A method and apparatus for transmitting voice media over a network where the voice media may be consumed either in a real-time mode or a time-shifted mode. The method comprising transmitting the voice media over the network using a network efficient protocol when either (i) the media is not being consumed in the real-time mode or (ii) the condition on the network is good enough to support the real-time transmission and consumption of the voice media in the real-time mode. Alternatively, the voice media is transmitted using a loss tolerant transmission protocol when the media is being consumed in the real-time mode and the condition on the network is sufficiently poor to prevent the real-time consumption of the voice media in real-time using the network efficient protocol. The apparatus, which may be a communication device or a server, implements the above-described method.
