1. A method for processing at least one multimedia stream pertaining to a real event, which is being acquired or has been acquired by a communications terminal, denoted as a first stream, wherein said method comprises the following steps:
- sub-dividing said first stream into a plurality of consecutive sequences, on the basis of at least one distribution characteristic associated with each of said sequences, said sub-dividing being activated by distribution of said first stream by said communications terminal andreplacement, in said first stream, of at least one part of a first sequence associated with a predetermined distribution characteristic by at least one part of a second sequence, identified from at least one distribution characteristic, of at least one second multimedia stream pertaining to said event, said second stream being distinct from said first stream, said part of said second sequence being of a same time frame as said part of said first sequence, said second part being selected according to said predetermined distribution characteristic associated with said first sequence, generating an optimized multimedia stream.

Abstract
A method is provided for processing at least one multimedia stream pertaining to a real event, which is being acquired or has been acquired by a communications terminal. The method includes sub-dividing the stream into a plurality of consecutive sequences, on the basis of at least one distribution characteristic associated with each of said sequences. The step of sub-dividing is activated by distribution of the first stream by the communications terminal.

11. A processing server for processing a multimedia stream pertaining to a real event, denoted as a first stream, wherein said server comprises:
-
means for sub-dividing said first multimedia stream distributed by a communications terminal and received by said processing server, said first stream being sub-divided into a plurality of consecutive sequences, on the basis of at least one distribution characteristic, associated with each of said sequences; and means for replacing, in said first received stream, at least a part of a first sequence associated with a predetermined distribution characteristic by at least one part of a second sequence, of a second received stream, said second multimedia stream pertaining to said event and being distinct from said first stream, having a same temporal overlap as said part of said first sequence, said part of said second sequence being selected according to said predetermined distribution characteristic, generating an optimized multimedia stream.

12. A non-transitory memory storing a program which, when executed by a computer or a processor, causes the computer or the processor to carry out a method for processing at least one multimedia stream pertaining to a real event, which is being acquired or has been acquired by a communications terminal, denoted as a first stream, wherein said method comprises the following steps:
-
sub-dividing said first stream into a plurality of consecutive sequences, on the basis of at least one distribution characteristic associated with each of said sequences, said sub-dividing being activated by a distribution of said first stream by said communications terminal; and replacement, in said first stream, of at least one part of a first sequence associated with a predetermined distribution characteristic by at least one part of a second sequence, identified from at least one distribution characteristic, of at least one second multimedia stream pertaining to said event, said second stream being distinct from said first stream, said part of said second sequence being of a same time frame as said part of said first sequence, said second part being selected according to said predetermined distribution characteristic associated with said first sequence, generating an optimized multimedia stream.
