Abstract:
1. A self-configurable asymmetric link system configured to operate conflicting video source devices, comprising: the self-configurable asymmetric link system configured to transmit, over a first direction, a first uncompressed video stream from a first source device to a first sink device; a physical switch coupled to the self-configurable asymmetric link system; the physical switch is configured to receive a request to transmit a second uncompressed video stream from a second source device to a second sink device over opposite direction of the self-configurable asymmetric link system; the physical switch is further configured to locate an accessible rendering device able to receive compressed video from the second source device and to transmit a third uncompressed video stream to the second sink device without flipping the first direction of the self-configurable asymmetric link system; and the second source device is configured to transmit compressed video to the rendering device, whereby the rendering device is configured to render and transmit the third uncompressed video stream to the second sink device.
