1. A method for transmission of images and/or video over bandwidth limited transmission channels having varying available bandwidth between a server and multiple devices, the method comprising the use of a classification algorithm for each of the images and/or video to be provided to a device, for:

  • decomposing the images and/or video to be transmitted into multiple spatial areas, each area having a specific image type;

    detecting the image type of each of those areas separately selecting for each of those areas an image and/or video encoding algorithm having a compression ratio;

    wherein each of said devices are prioritized, said classification algorithm increasing the compression ratio of the image and/or video encoding algorithms dedicated to a device having lower priority in case of decreasing bandwidth.
