System for Dynamic Audio Visual Capabilities Exchange
First Claim
1. A method of communicating audio visual capabilities, the method comprising:
- transmitting, from a first device to a second device, capabilities information of the first device, the capabilities information of the first device identifying the audio visual capabilities of the first device;
transmitting, from the second device to the first device, a multimedia stream based on the capabilities information of the first device;
identifying, at the first device, a change in a portion of the capabilities information of the first device;
transmitting, from the first device to the second device, only a subset of the capabilities information that includes the changed portion of the capabilities information of the first device; and
modifying, at the second device, a multimedia stream being sent from the second device to the first device based on the changed portion of the capabilities information of the first device.

Abstract
A sink device transmits capabilities information associated with the sink device to the source device. The source device, responsive to receiving the capabilities information of the sink device generates a multimedia stream, and transmits the generated multimedia stream to the sink device to be output to the user. The sink device identifies a portion of the capabilities information that has changed and transmits to the source device a notification notifying the source device that a portion of the capabilities information has changed. The source device transmits a request for the portion of the capabilities information that has changed to the sink device. The sink device responsive to receiving the request transmits the portion of the capabilities information that has changed to the source device. The source device then modifies the multimedia stream output to the sink device based on the portion of the capabilities information that has changed.
