Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, apparatus and system for a synchronized playlist calculation, which is used to calculate playlists and filler media for seamless transitions during the alternation of individual and common channel programming. In various embodiments of the present invention, an optimum switching (synchronization) point is determined for the individual channels. Subsequently, channels not having a termination/end point consistent with the determined switching point are padded with respective filler content (media) to coordinate the termination points of the channels to be synchronized. The amount of filler content needed for each channel is determined respectively for a channel. Similarly, a switching (synchronization) point is determined for the common channel to provide accurate transitions.

Cette invention concerne un procédé, un appareil et un système s'appliquant à un calcul de liste de diffusion synchronisées, ce système étant utilisé pour calculer des listes de diffusion et des médias d'apport pour des transitions sans coupure au cours de l'alternance de la programmation des canaux individuels et communs. Selon divers modes de mise en oeuvre de cette invention, un point de commutation (synchronisation) optimum est déterminé pour les canaux individuels. Ensuite, des canaux dont le point de terminaison/d'extrémité n'est pas en accord avec le point de commutation déterminé sont comblés avec des contenus d'apport (médias) afin de coordonner les points de terminaison des canaux à synchroniser. La quantité du contenu d'apport nécessaire pour chaque canal est déterminée respectivement pour chaque canal. De façon similaire, un point de commutation (synchronisation) est déterminé pour le canal commun pour obtenir des transitions précises.
