Abstract
A method may include establishing, via a mobile device, a plurality of media streaming sessions with a respective plurality of source devices. A plurality of media streams may be received at the mobile device from respective plurality of source devices. Representations of the plurality of received media streams may be displayed at the mobile device. A user selection of a particular one of the plurality of received media streams may be received. An output stream that includes the particular one of the plurality of received media streams may be outputted.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- establishing, via a mobile device, a plurality of media streaming sessions with a respective plurality of source devices;
- receiving, at the mobile device, a plurality of media streams from respective plurality of source devices;
- displaying representations of the plurality of received media streams;
- receiving a user selection of a particular one of the plurality of received media streams;
- and
- outputting an output stream that includes the particular one of the plurality of received media streams.
A mobile device comprising:
- a network interface to receive a plurality of video streams from a respective plurality of source devices;
- a display;
- an output interface;
- and
- a processor to:
- establish a plurality of video streaming sessions with the respective plurality of source devices for enabling the network interface to receive the plurality of video streams;
- display representations of the plurality of received video streams on the display;
- receive a user selection of a particular one of the plurality of received video streams;
- and
- output an output stream via the output interface, wherein the output stream includes the particular one of the plurality of received media streams.
The mobile device of claim, wherein the processor is further configured to:
- receive a user selection of a destination for the output stream;
- and
- output the output stream to the selected destination via the output interface.
A computer-readable medium having stored thereon a plurality of sequences of instructions which, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
- receive a plurality of substantially real time media streams from a respective plurality of source devices;
- display, to a user, representations of the plurality of received substantially real time media streams;
- receive, from the user, a selection of a particular one of the plurality of received substantially real time media streams;
- and
- output an output stream that includes the particular one of the plurality of received media streams.
