Abstract
A method is suggested enabling a person that watches a TV broadcasted live event to select and associate in a simple manner to the displayed video, an audio stream dealing with the same event but delivered by another source than the TV channel. The method relies on techniques allowing to know and to decode some available audio streams that deal with the same live event as the one currently displayed on TV and to synchronize these audio streams with the TV channel.
