A method of and mobile User Equipment, UE, (5) for handling media types of an Internet Protocol, IP, multimedia communication session in an IP Multimedia communication Subsystem, IMS, (2) wherein at the receipt of a session set up request message (F1) a mobile UE (5) presents media type handling options (57) based on the session set up request message (F1). After receiving media type handling instructions (58) by the mobile UE, (5) based on the presented media type handling options (57), a session accept message (F3) is transmitted by the mobile UE (5) in accordance with the media type handling instructions (58). Based on the media type handling instructions (58), media type may be routed (19) by the IMS (2) to terminal equipment (8, 9) remote from the mobile UE (5).
A method of handling media types of an Internet Protocol, IP, multimedia communication session in an IP Multimedia communication Subsystem, IMS, by a mobile User Equipment, UE, (5) comprising an IMS client (7) supporting Session Initiation Protocol, SIP, signalling, characterized by the steps of:
The method according to any of the previous claims, wherein said at least one media type at least comprises video type media, including streaming video type media.
A Mobile User Equipment, UE, (5) comprising processing means (53) connected to input means (51), output means (52) and communication means (54), said mobile UE (5) is arranged for supporting calls in a radio access network (1) and communication sessions in an Internet Protocol, IP, Multimedia communication Subsystem, IMS, (2) wherein the processing means (53) are arranged for executing an IMS client (7) supporting Session Initiation Protocol, SIP, signalling for handling media types of a multimedia communication session, said IMS client (7) is arranged for processing a SIP session set up request message (F1) received via said communication means (54), characterized in that said IMS client (7) is further arranged for:
An Internet Protocol, IP, Multimedia Subsystem, IMS, node (2) comprising processing means (21) connected to communication means (22), said IMS node (2) is arranged for supporting multimedia communication sessions with mobile User Equipment, UE, (5) in a radio access network (1), and Session Initiation Protocol, SIP, signalling for handling media types in a first multimedia communication session in an IMS communication system, wherein said processing means (21) of said IMS node (2) are arranged for initiating an establishment of a second multimedia communication session with remote terminal equipment (8, 9) identified by identification data (20) received via said communication means (22) in said first communication session, and arranged for initiating a forwarding (19), via said communication means (22), of at least one media type of said first multimedia communication session to said remote terminal equipment (8, 9), characterized in that said processing means (21) of said IMS node (2) are arranged for initiating a forwarding (19) via said communication means (22) of said at least one media type to said remote terminal equipment (8, 9) based on handling instructions received via said communication means (22) from said mobile UE (5).
