Abstract

See full text

A multi-conference unit (MCU) (2) is arranged to compress a video stream in the horizontal direction to adjust the aspect ratio prior to onward transmission to an endpoint (6-1 to 6-4). By arranging for an endpoint to de-compress the video stream by a similar amount, widescreen video streams may be transmitted and viewed using generally legacy equipment. The use of a widescreen transmission provides additional opportunities for effective layouts of windows in a composed video stream with excessive distortion or clipping.
