Abstract

L'invention concerne des systèmes et des procédés destinés à attribuer des flux de transport pour permettre une administration simultanée d'au moins deux contenus multimédias au moyen d'un seul sélecteur de flux. Plus particulièrement, une demande d'un utilisateur de recevoir simultanément plus de deux contenus multimédias peut être reçue. Un indicateur peut indiquer aux circuits de commande que les contenus multimédias demandés sont liés en un bloc de contenu multimédia. Les circuits de commande peuvent identifier un flux de transport avec une largeur de bande suffisante pour transporter le bloc de contenus multimédias liés. Après identification d'un tel flux de transport, les circuits de commande peuvent attribuer les contenus multimédias liés au flux de transport. Afin de conserver les largeurs de bande du système, les circuits de commande peuvent déterminer de manière avantageuse quel flux de transport devrait transporter les contenus multimédias de manière que les utilisations de tous les flux de transport soient efficacement maximisés.
