ITPEC IP April 2019 — Question 25 of 100

Streaming begins playback after enough of the incoming data has arrived, without waiting for the entire video to download. A buffer normally holds some data before and during playback so that reception and presentation can proceed concurrently.

Answer (d)

Why not others:
- (a) is false because streaming can deliver live events while they are being captured

- (b) is false because packet loss or an inadequate connection can still degrade playback

- (c) is false because an initial buffering or startup delay may be required

Key rule: Streaming overlaps data transfer with playback; it reduces the wait for a complete download but does not eliminate buffering or network problems.
