摘要

The present invention relates to a method l for distributing non real-time media in a non real-time media distribution system. The non real-time medic distribution system comprises a non-real time media server and a non-real time media client where the non-real time media server and the media client is coupled over a communications network. This method comprises the steps of distributing the non-real time media to the non real-time media client, over the communications network coupling the media server to the media client. The method further comprises the step of sending a real-time control message from a second control protocol agent at the non-real time media client to a first control protocol agent at the media server for controlling the distributing of non real-time media. The step of distributing the non real-time media from the non real time server to the media client is based on the real-time distribution control message.
