Abstract

The present disclosure relates to presentation of live multimedia information via a live multimedia information system that includes a collecting device, and a standardization server. A live instruction sent by a live terminal is received; ambient information is recorded and multimedia information is obtained using the collecting device; the multimedia information, which may include audiovisual information to be presented in real time to remote viewers, is sent to the standardization server according to the live instruction, which may identify a destination for the multimedia information. The standardization server may send the multimedia information, which may be optimized for one or more playing terminals, to a playing terminal, and the playing terminal may receive and play the multimedia information for a remote audience. Playback quality is improved for live multimedia information.
