Abstract
The disclosure relates to video telephony and, more particularly, to techniques for detecting a video pause in a video telephony application. In one example of the disclosure, a method for video telephony comprises detecting, at a receiving device, that video data packets associated with a video telephony call have stopped arriving from a sending device, and determining that the sending device has paused a video portion of the video telephony call based on information contained in video control packets.

A method for video telephony, the method comprising:
- detecting, at a receiving device, that video data packets associated with a video telephony call have stopped arriving from a sending device;
- and
- determining, at the receiving device, that the sending device has paused a video portion of the video telephony call based on information contained in video control packets.
An apparatus configured for video telephony, the apparatus comprising:
- means for detecting, at a receiving device, that video data packets associated with a video telephony call have stopped arriving from a sending device;
- and
- means for determining, at the receiving device, that the sending device has paused a video portion of the video telephony call based on information contained in video control packets.
An apparatus configured for video telephony, the apparatus comprising:
- a receiving device configured to:
- detect, at the receiving device, that video data packets associated with a video telephony call have stopped arriving from a sending device;
- and
- determine that the sending device has paused a video portion of the video telephony call based on information contained in video control packets.
A computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed, cause one or more processors of a device for video telephony to:
- detect, at the receiving device, that video data packets associated with a video telephony call have stopped arriving from a sending device;
- and
- determine, at the receiving device, that the sending device has paused a video portion of the video telephony call based on information contained in video control packets.
