Question: What is a key advantage for a User Equipment (UE) when the same set of codecs is used for representing the same service over both Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Service (MBMS) and Packet Switched Streaming (PSS) accesses during an access switch?
Option 1: Reduced MBMS FEC buffering delays
Option 2: Simplified seamless access switching using continuous decoding buffers
Option 3: Increased time offset between MBMS and PSS packet receptions
Option 4: Mandatory parallel running of new decoders for an extended period
Explanation: Using the same set of codecs for both MBMS and PSS accesses allows the UE to continuously utilize its decoding buffers without interruption, thereby simplifying the process of seamless access switching between the two. This continuity eliminates the need for the UE to prepare new decoders or manage parallel decoder operations, making the switch as smooth as possible for the user.
