First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- capturing, via a plurality of multimedia platforms, multimedia data;
receiving, during capture of the multimedia data, a first synchronization signal by each of the plurality of multimedia platforms;
processing, by each multimedia platform, the first synchronization signal to generate a first common clock reference among the plurality of multimedia platforms;
synchronizing captured multimedia data according to the first common clock reference;
receiving, a second synchronization signal by each of the plurality of multimedia platforms;
processing, by each multimedia platform, the second synchronization signal to generate a transitional common clock reference among the plurality of multimedia platforms; and
processing, by each multimedia platform, the second synchronization signal to generate a second common clock reference among the plurality of multimedia platforms.

Abstract
A system and method for adaptation of time synchronization of a plurality of multimedia streams is presented. In one embodiment, multimedia data is captured, via a plurality of multimedia platforms. A first synchronization signal is received by each of the plurality of multimedia platforms. The first synchronization signal is used to generate a first common clock reference among the plurality of multimedia platforms. Captured multimedia data is synchronized according to the first common clock reference. A second synchronization signal is received by each of the plurality of multimedia platforms. The second synchronization signal is used generate a transitional common clock reference among the plurality of multimedia platforms. The second synchronization signal is also used to generate a second common clock reference among the plurality of multimedia platforms.
