The invention further provides a video conference control system. The user can give priority to the image quality or network resources as needed, and the using flexibility and experience of the user can be greatly improved.

Description

Video conference control method and system

Technical field

The present invention relates to a kind of conference control method and system, particularly relate to a kind of video conference control method and system.

Background technology

Current video conference is mainly based upon the system structure of multipoint control unit (Multi-pointControlUnit, MCU) and based on the system structure of video router. The advantage of MCU system is to save Internet resources, but picture compression ratio is big, and picture is unintelligible; And the system structure based on video router has just mended the MCU unsharp shortcoming of structure picture, but it is high to the occupancy of Internet resources, is not suitable for the network that performance is bad. The structure of current most of video conference is all come discrete for both structures, and this makes user use and is not as flexible.

Summary of the invention

In view of the foregoing, it is necessary to provide a kind of video conference control method and system, user image quality can be selected preferential according to the demand of oneself or Internet resources are preferential, thus being greatly improved flexibility ratio and Experience Degree that user uses.

A kind of video conference control method, the method includes: receiving step one, receives the request communicated with the foundation of described server and the IP address obtaining this client that the client being connected with described server sends; Establishment step one, according to the IP address obtained, sets up the communication connection of described server and described client; Forwarding step, it will the option of view pattern is sent to described client; Receiving step two, receives the conference model that user selects from described option; And establishment step two, set up, for described client, the conference model that described user selects. .

A kind of Video Conference Controlling System, runs on server, and this system includes: receiver module, for receiving the request communicated with the foundation of described server and the IP address obtaining this client that the client being connected with described server sends; Set up module, for according to acquired IP address, setting up the communication connection of described server and described client; Sending module, for the option of conference model is sent to described client, and is shown in the user interface of client; Described receiver module, is additionally operable to receive the conference model that user selects from described option; And described set up module, it is additionally operable to set up, for described client, the conference model that described user selects.

Compared to prior art, described video conference control method and system provide the conference model based on MCU and the conference model based on video router to select for user, user image quality can be selected preferential according to the demand of oneself or Internet resources are preferential, such that it is able to be greatly improved flexibility ratio and the Experience Degree of the use of user.

Following detailed description of the invention will further illustrate the present invention in conjunction with above-mentioned accompanying drawing.

Detailed description of the invention

Consult shown in Fig. 1, be the running environment schematic diagram of Video Conference Controlling System preferred embodiment of the present invention. Described Video Conference Controlling System 10 runs in server 1. This server 1 also includes the storage device 11 being connected by data/address bus, and one or more processes equipment 12, multipoint control unit (Multi-pointControlUnit, MCU) 13 and Route processing unit 14 etc. Described server 1 is connected with multiple clients 2, and described client 2 can be computer, mobile phone, PDA (PersonalDigitalAssistant, personal digital assistant) etc.

Described multipoint control unit is relevant with the conference model based on MCU, and the described advantage based on the conference model of MCU is to save Internet resources. Described Route processing unit is relevant with the conference model based on video router, and the video pictures based on the conference model of video router is clear, but it is high to the occupancy of Internet resources.

Described Video Conference Controlling System 10 includes one or more functional module (referring to Fig. 2) being made up of program code, each functional module is stored in described storage device 11, and performed by described process equipment 12, to implement function such as: provide the conference model based on MCU and the conference model based on video router to select for user, user can select applicable conference model according to the demand of oneself.

Consulting shown in Fig. 2, in the present embodiment, the functional module of described Video Conference Controlling System 10 includes: receiver module 100, set up module 101 and sending module 102. The concrete function of each module is described below with reference to Fig. 3.

Consult shown in Fig. 3, be the flow chart of video conference control method preferred embodiment of the present invention. According to different demands, in this flow chart, the order of step can change, and some step can be omitted.

Step S11, after certain client 2 uses username and password to log in described Video Conference Controlling System 10, receiver module 100 receives the request communicated with server 1 foundation and the IP address obtaining this client 2 that described client 2 sends. In the present embodiment, the corresponding IP address of each client 2. Each client 2 utilizes this IP address to set up communication connection with server 1

Step S12, sets up module 101 according to acquired IP address, sets up communication connection with described client 2.

Step S13, the option of conference model is sent to client 2 by sending module 102, and is shown in the user interface of client 2.

In the present embodiment, described conference model includes, but not limited to the conference model based on MCU and the conference model based on video router.

Step S14, receiver module 100 receives user-selected conference model.

In the present embodiment, when the network state of user is relatively good, user can select the conference model based on video router, so can ensure that the definition of video pictures. When the network state of user has been not as, user can select the conference model based on MCU, so can save Internet resources, it is ensured that the reception of video pictures and the carrying out of video conference.

The conference model of described MCU is the picture that server 1 receives that each client 2 sends, and the picture received is merged splicing by server 1, and the picture after merging is sent to each client 2. The described conference model based on video router is that each client merges oneself required picture, and server 1 can send that each client is 2-in-1 and the picture of other client required during picture. Such as, server 1 and customer end A, customer end B and client C are connected, and customer end A, B, C can send respective picture to server 1. When customer end A needs the picture merging oneself, customer end B can be sent by request server 1, the picture of C. Then customer end A is according to the customer end B received, and the picture of the picture of C and customer end A oneself just can merge oneself required picture.

Step S15, sets up module 101 and sets up the conference model corresponding with described conference model to described client 2 according to user-selected conference model.

Finally it should be noted that, above example is only in order to illustrate technical scheme and unrestricted, although the present invention being described in detail with reference to preferred embodiment, it will be understood by those within the art that, technical scheme can be modified or equivalent replacement, without deviating from the spirit and scope of technical solution of the present invention.
