FIELD: information technology.
SUBSTANCE: system for protecting interactive audio/video (A/V) stream with short waiting time includes a plurality of servers on which one or more applications are executed. The system also includes a input routing network which receives packet streams from users and routes them to one or more said servers, wherein said streams include user input commands, wherein one or more said servers is configured to calculate A/V data in response to user input commands. Furthermore, the system includes an output routing network which routes streaming compressed A/V data with short waiting time to each user over a corresponding communication channel through a second interface. The system also includes a compressing unit connected to receive A/V data from one or more servers and output therefrom streaming compressed A/V data with short waiting time, and is configured to generate forward error correction (FEC) data for protecting certain parts of the compressed video stream with short waiting time from channel errors.
EFFECT: high protection of data transmitted over a communication channel.
