1. A system comprising:
- a transmission device having;
a transport stream file (TSF) generator to convert a transport stream of audio/video data in to a TSF including the audio/video data;
a file disk to store the TSF after it is generated by the TSF generator; and
an encode module to apply Forward Error Correction to the TSF to identify errors arising during transmission of the TSF and to encode the TSF for the transmission;
a transmission medium coupled to the transmission device to transmit the TSF; and
a set top appliance, coupled to the transmission medium, to receive the TSF.

9. A transmission device comprising:
-
a video encoder to encode video bit streams received at the transmission device; an audio encoder to encode audio bit streams received at the transmission device; a first multiplexer, coupled to the audio encoder and the video encoder, to combine the encoded audio and video bit streams to form a transport stream; and a transport stream file (TSF) generator, coupled to the first multiplexer, to convert the transport stream into a TSF including the audio/video data transport stream; a file disk to store the TSF after it is generated by the TSF generator; and an encode module to apply Forward Error Correction to the TSF to identify errors arising during transmission of the TSF and to encode the TSF for the transmission. - View Dependent Claims (10)

11. A method comprising:
-
encoding audio and video bit streams at a transmission device; combining the audio and video bit streams to form a transport stream; converting the transport stream to a transport stream file (TSF) including the audio/video data transport stream; storing the TSF after it is converted from the transport stream; and applying Forward Error Correction to the TSF to identify errors arising during a transmission of the TSF. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13)

14. An article of manufacture including one or more computer readable media that embody a program of instructions wherein the program of instructions, when executed by a processing unit, causes the processing unit to:
-
encode audio and video bit streams at a transmission device; combine the audio and video bit streams to form a transport stream; and convert the transport stream to a transport stream file (TSF) including the audio/video data transport stream; store the TSF after it is converted from the transport stream; and apply Forward Error Correction to the TSF to identify errors arising during a transmission of the TSF. - View Dependent Claims (15)
