Recently, the emergent growth of real-time multimedia applications brought forth two new technologies, FGS video encoding method in the field of video and TFRC algorithm in the field of network. With these two technologies, it is now possible to deliver videos of as high quality as possible while maximally utilizing available network bandwidth estimated by TFRC algorithm. Without decoder buffer control, however, the amount of the video in the decoder buffer is arbitrarily determined and sometimes a decoder buffer underflow which triggers rebuffering occurs. So the paper proposes an advanced streaming mechanism which maintains playable time of the video in the decoder buffer at a target point while maximally utilizing given TCP-friendly rate.
