Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for enabling non-IP-encapsulated videos to be received at subscriber premises and displayed on IP playback devices are provided. A terminal adapter receives a non-IP-encapsulated video at a subscriber premise and transcodes the video to a format that can be processed by the IP playback device. The terminal adapter IP-encapsulates the transcoded video and then routes the IP-encapsulated video to the IP playback device. In this way, the processing to convert non-IP-encapsulated videos stored on video servers is not concentrated at a central location but instead distributed across subscriber premises. Furthermore, congestion on the downstream link can be reduced because videos in a video server are not required to be transmitted downstream under two different schemes.
