  • Patent number: 9621854
    Abstract: A videoconference may be initiated between a plurality of endpoints. At least one of the endpoints may be coupled to a recording server, which may be configured to record the videoconference. A configuration may be selected (e.g., automatically or manually) for performing the recording. The endpoint (e.g., acting as an MCU) may transmit information to endpoints and may transmit recording information to the recording server. The recording information may be different from the videoconference information. For example, it may be in a “streaming friendly” format, at a different bit rate, encoded differently, have different inputs, etc. The manner in which the videoconference is stored and/or recorded may be based on the selected configuration. Clients may be configured to receive and display the videoconference from the recording server and may be configured to change the provided layout to different layouts, e.g., based on user input.

  • Publication number: 20110102540
    Abstract: Filtering auxiliary audio from vocal audio in a conference. Audio may be received during a conference. The audio may include vocal audio from a first participant as well as auxiliary audio that is not vocal audio from the first participant. The auxiliary audio may result from use of a computer input device at the location. The audio may be filtered to remove the auxiliary audio from the audio. The filtered audio may be provided, e.g., over a network to other participant locations of the conference.
