Abstract: Providing object-oriented-zoom by identifying, in a transmitter, a region-of-interest in a captured video part, communicating to a receiver the video stream, and an identification of the region-of-interest, marking, on a display of the receiver, the region-of-interest over the captured video stream on a screen display, receiving from a selection of the displayed region-of-interest forming a selected object, communicating the selection to the transmitter, dividing the video stream, in the transmitter, into a first part including the selected object, and a second part including at least a part of the captured video stream less the first part, communicating the first and second parts to the receiver, displaying the first and second parts simultaneously, where the first part is displayed in a substantially constant location of a screen display of the receiver, and where the second part is displayed around the first part to fill the screen display of the receiver.

Abstract: A method or system configured for receiving a first single data stream representing a first multimedia file, the first single data stream including an interleaved sequence of data elements of a plurality of media, and/or transmitting a second single data stream representing a second multimedia file, the second single data stream including an interleaved sequence of data elements of said plurality of media, where the second multimedia file differs from said first multimedia file by at least one data element of a selected medium extracted from said first multimedia file, and/or by at least one data element of a selected medium added to the first multimedia file, and/or by at least one data element of a selected medium added to the first multimedia file being a converted version of the at least one data element of a selected medium extracted from the first multimedia file.

Abstract: Video communications between multiple computer systems configured to transmit and receive video content. A client transmitter is enabled to transmit a video message for display on the client recipient. The client transmitter is configured to transmit or record the video message to the video server. The video message is archived by the video server. When the client recipient is unavailable during the beginning of the transmission of the video message and when the client recipient is available later during the transmission of the video message, the client recipient is enabled to display the video message from the beginning of the video message while the transmission of the video message is still ongoing.
