Abstract
In accordance with an example embodiment of the present invention, a method and apparatus are described for mapping one or more layers of a scalable media stream to at least one physical layer pipe of a transmission. Information related to the mapping is transmitted. Also, the one or more layers are transmitted in the at least one physical layer pipe. Further, a method and apparatus are shown for receiving data in a transmission in at least one physical layer pipe. Information is received in related to a mapping of one or more layers of a scalable media stream to the at least one physical layer pipe. Based on the received information related to the mapping, the one or more layers of the scalable media stream in the received data are identified.
