Claim:
1. A method for sending uncompressed video data, wherein the video data represent at least one image comprising a plurality of pixels, the method comprising: ordering, for a video component of a pixel, bits encoding said video component, according to their significance in the video component, wherein a bit being at the i generating a plurality of packets from a group comprising a plurality of video components, each packet comprising a plurality of bits having the same position in all the video components of the group after ordering; and sending generated packets, wherein the sending of packets containing higher significant bits of the video components takes precedence over the sending of packets containing lower significant bits of the video components; re-sending at least some of the packets that have not been successfully transmitted; and wherein the sending of a packet of lower significance is never made if the packets of higher significance corresponding to the same video components have not been successfully transmitted, the transmission being made using frames, constituted by a set of subframes, wherein the method further comprises choosing the size of the group of video components to fit the size in bits of the subframes, determining a block of video components, constituted by a plurality of said groups of video components, the number of groups being chosen to fit the number of subframes within a frame; considering the packets generated as a block of rows and columns of packets, each column of packets containing the packets obtained from a given group of the block of video components; generating frames constituted by subframes, each subframe containing exactly one packet from one column of the block of packets; and sending said frames.
