A method includes generating, based on at least one received signal, a first packet stream and a second packet stream. One of the first and second packet streams includes a packet associated with the other of the first and second packet streams. The first and second packet streams indicate respective buffer configuration sizes. The method further includes, prior to determining the respective buffer configuration sizes indicated by the first and second packet streams, allocating respective first and second portions of a dejitter buffer to the first and second packet streams. In at least one embodiment of the method, the allocating is performed by hardware coupled to the dejitter buffer.
