With the growth of computing power and the proliferation of broadband Internet access, the use of media streaming has become widely diffused. In this paper, based on our previous work, we propose a Peer-to-Peer (P2P) media streaming system that can provide a large number of users with continuous media streaming services while dynamically adapting to peer departures and changes in network conditions. For this purpose, we propose a new media retrieval method that dynamically switches provider peers. Through several simulation experiments, we show that the proposed media retrieval method improves the completeness of media playout compared with previous methods. Furthermore, we also show that our search method is more robust to peer departures than flooding methods.
