Wireless audio synchronization
First Claim
1. A method of synchronizing playback of audio data sent over a first wireless network from an audio source to a wireless speaker package that is adapted to play the audio data, the method comprising:
- comparing a first time period over which audio data was sent over the first wireless network to a second time period over which the audio data was received by the wireless speaker package, where the comparison comprises a function of the first and second time periods, where the function comprises one of a ratio of the first and second time periods, or an adaptive learning algorithm; and
playing the received audio data on the wireless speaker package over a third time period that is related to the comparison of the first and second time periods.

20. A wireless speaker package, comprising:
-
an electro-acoustic transducer; a processor; and memory comprising instructions which when executed by the processor cause the wireless speaker package to; compare a first time period over which audio data was sent to the wireless speaker package over a first wireless network to a second time period over which the audio data was received by the wireless speaker package, where the comparison is a function of the first and second time periods, where the function is one of a ratio of the first and second time periods, or an adaptive learning algorithm; and play the received audio data on the wireless speaker package over a third time period that is related to the comparison of the first and second time period.
