Abstract

The preparation method has a double-sided audio connection and a single-sided video connection to a different server opened upon operation of a button after accessing a web site via the internet, with the web site held in the background from the internet. The web site and the video transmission is transmitted via 2 B-channels of an ISDN line at 64 Kbits, the website held in the background from the internet with 6 Kbits, leaving 122 Kbit for the video transmission.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren zur Bereitstellung von Videoübertragungen.The invention relates to a method for Provision of video broadcasts.

Videoübertragungen, die über Telefonleitungen bereitgestellt werden (beispielsweise im Internet), fehlt im wesentlichen eine gute Bildqualität (Auflösung). Zum einen sind die gelieferten Bilder sehr unscharf und zum anderen sind die Bewegungen von Personen in "bewegten" Bildern sehr abgehackt. Dies liegt u. a. daran, daß bei der derzeitigen Technik die Übertragungsrate immer langsamer wird je mehr Leute auf eine Quelle zurückgreifen.Video broadcasts provided over telephone lines (e.g. on the Internet), there is essentially one missing good image quality (resolution). On the one hand are the delivered ones Images are very blurred and on the other hand are the movements of People in "moving" pictures very choppy. This is u. a. remember that with the current technology the transmission rate the slower the more people on a source the slower it gets To fall back on.

Ferner ist bei diesen Videoübertragungen zumeist keine Kommunikation zwischen den beiden verbundenen Parteien möglich, so daß der Einsatz dieser Videoübertragungen doch sehr begrenzt ist.Furthermore, there is usually none in these video transmissions Communication between the two connected parties possible so that the use of these video transmissions is very limited is.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren zur Bereitstellung von Videoübertragungen zu schaffen, mit dem zum einen hervorragende Bildqualitäten ermöglicht werden und zum anderen die Bewegungen von Personen weitestgehend natürlich erscheinen, wobei auch eine Kommunikation zwischen beiden verbundenen Parteien ermöglicht ist.The invention is therefore based on the object Create procedures for providing video broadcasts with which, on the one hand, excellent picture qualities are made possible and secondly, the movements of people as much as possible appear natural, including communication between is possible for both related parties.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch ein Verfahren mit den Kennzeichnungsmerkmalen des Patentanspruch 1 gelöst. This object is achieved by a method with the characterizing features of claim 1 solved.  

Eine zweckmäßige Weiterbildung ist in dem einzigen Unteranspruch gekennzeichnet.A practical training is in the only one Subclaim marked.

Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren werden "bewegte" Bilder in einer hervorragenden Qualität (Auflösung) zur Verfügung gestellt. Die komprimierten Daten werden vom Server ohne den Umweg über das Internet dem Nutzer auf seinen Computer übertragen. Durch die beidseitige Audioverbindung ist eine direkte Kommunikation zwischen den verbunden Parteien möglich.In the method according to the invention, "moving" images available in excellent quality (resolution) posed. The compressed data is sent from the server without the Detour via the Internet to the user's computer transfer. Due to the two-sided audio connection is one direct communication between the connected parties possible.

Nach dem Aufrufen einer Website aus dem Internet können mit dem Verfahren zur Bereitstellung von Videoübertragungen dieselben mit einer beidseitigen Audio-Verbindung und einer einseitigen Videoverbindung eines anderen Servers über einen Button geöffnet werden und in die Website aus dem Internet gestellt werden. Dabei wird die Website aus dem Internet im Hintergrund gehalten.After visiting a website from the Internet you can use the procedure for providing video broadcasts the same with a two-way audio connection and one one-sided video connection of another server via a Button open and go to the website from the Internet be put. The website is from the Internet in Background kept.

Dazu werden die Website und die angewählte Videoübertragung über zwei B-Kanäle einer ISDN-Leitung mit je 64 KBit übertragen. Dabei bleibt die Website aus dem Internet mit ca. 6 KBit aufrechterhalten und ca. 122 KBit werden der Videoübertragung des anderen Servers für die Audio- und Video-Verbindung zur Verfügung gestellt.For this the website and the selected video transmission transmitted over two B channels of an ISDN line with 64 kbits each. The website remains on the Internet with about 6 kbit maintained and about 122 kbits of video transmission of the other server for the audio and video connection to Provided.

Für dieses Verfahren besteht eine Vielzahl von Anwendungsmöglichkeiten. Beispielsweise kann eine Live- Diskussion mit einem Experten eines bestimmten Gebietes stattfinden. Solche Diskussionen werden bereits im Vorfeld, d. h. Tage zuvor angekündigt. Zum Zeitpunkt einer Diskussion wird mit dem zuvor erwähnten Button das Fenster für die Videoübertragung geöffnet und die entsprechende Nummer wird vom Computer gewählt. There are a variety of methods for this process Applications. For example, a live Discussion with an expert in a particular area occur. Such discussions are already in advance, i. H. Announced days earlier. At the time of a discussion, the previously mentioned button the window for the video transmission opened and the corresponding number is dialed by the computer.  

Durch die beidseitige Audioverbindung kann somit eine Kommunikation zwischen den Parteien stattfinden.Due to the audio connection on both sides, a Communication between the parties take place.

Eine weitere Anwendungsmöglichkeit besteht darin, daß Schulen die Möglichkeit anbieten, bei Krankheit vom Bett aus am Unterricht teilzunehmen, wobei der einseitige Sichtkontakt ausreichend ist, um beispielsweise Experimente im Chemie- oder Physik-Unterricht zu beobachten.Another application is that Schools offer the possibility of being sick from bed on Participate in class, being one-sided visual contact is sufficient to, for example, experiments in chemistry or Watch physics classes.
