Method and device for the continuous transmission of a video in a communication network
First Claim
1. A method for the continuous transmission of a video from a server to a number of client machines over a communication network, comprising:
- obtaining requests from client machines, at least some of the requests obtained each specifying at least one spatial zone of interest in one or more images of the video, a spatial zone representing a set of digital data, processing the requests obtained so as to determine one or more intersections defining common data between the spatial zones of interest of the video, creating a multipoint network session for each intersection thus determined.
