Abstract
The present invention is directed towards a method and a portable communication device (200) for forming a real time output media stream by mixing a first real time media stream with a second media stream. Provision of mixing of media streams provides a number of attractive functions, for instance. This invention concerns how to increase the usage of a mobile VT application and how to be able to handle integrity issues when used in a portable communication device.
Claims29
Method for forming an output media stream to be transmitted during a communication session from a portable communication device, wherein said media stream comprises signals of a first type, comprising the steps of:
- generating in real time a first media stream in the portable communication device,
- combining in real time the first media stream with a second media stream, for forming the output media stream.
Portable communication device for forming an output media stream to be transmitted during a communication session from said portable communication device, wherein said output media stream comprises signals of a first type, said portable communication device comprising:
- at least one generating unit provided for generating a first media stream,
- a first combining unit, connected to said generating unit, provided for combining in real time the first media stream with a second media stream, and
- a control unit controlling the generating unit and the combining unit, in dependence of user input.
