1. Method for controlling a rendering time of a second content stream on a second device, said second content stream being organized in chunks, each chunk corresponding to a part accessible individually of the second content stream, each chunk comprising data packets, said method comprising:
- a) receiving, by a control device a request of a chunk of the second content stream from the second device;
b) receiving, by the control device, the packets of the requested chunk; and
c) delivering, by the control device, the requested chunk to the second device at a delivery time at which said requested chunk should be delivered to the second device so that the second device rendering of the second content stream is synchronized with a first device rendering of a first content stream, said delivery time being function of a second position of said requested chunk in the second content stream determined on the basis of a playback position of the first content stream being rendered on the first device.

Abstract
Method for controlling a rendering time of a second content stream on a second device, said second content stream being organized in chunks, each chunk comprising data packets, said method comprising steps of:
- a) receiving a request of a chunk of the second content stream from the second device;
- b) determining a second position of said requested chunk on the basis of a playback position of a first content stream being rendered on a first device;
- c) receiving the packets of the requested chunk from a server; and
- d) delivering the requested chunk to the second device at a delivery time at which said requested chunk should be delivered to the second device, said delivery time being function of said second position.

7. Control device for controlling a rendering time of a second content stream on a second device so that the second device rendering of the second content stream is synchronized with a first device rendering of a first content stream, said control device being adapted for:
-
a) receiving a request of a chunk of the second content stream from the second device; b) receiving the packets of the requested chunk; and c) delivering the requested chunk to the second device at a delivery time at which said requested chunk should be delivered, said delivery time being function of a second position of said requested chunk in the second content stream determined on the basis of a playback position of the first content stream being rendered on the first device. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9)
