Abstract:
1. A method for setting up a communication link from a first telecommunication device to a second telecommunication device via a telecommunication network, comprising: storing at least one multimedia object in the second telecommunication device, each multimedia object having a corresponding reference number; specifying an allocation map, having at least one data record, each indicating allocation of a specific call recipient to a specific reference number of a specific multimedia object; sending a connection setup request from the first telecommunication device allocated to a first telecommunication user to the telecommunication network, which request indicates that a communication link is to be set up from the first telecommunication device to the second telecommunication device allocated to a second telecommunication user; determining the corresponding reference number for the first telecommunication user when communicating with the second telecommunication user, using the allocation map, said determining being performed in the first telecommunication device or in the telecommunication network; transmitting a call signal to the second telecommunication device, together with display information that is a function of the corresponding reference number; and playing by the second telecommunication device a corresponding multimedia object, included in the at least one multimedia object stored in the second telecommunication device and matching the corresponding reference number, based on the display information, wherein the allocation map is stored in the first telecommunication device or the telecommunication network, when said determining is performed in the first telecommunication device transmitting, by the first telecommunication device to the telecommunication network, the corresponding reference number of the corresponding multimedia object for the second telecommunication user when communicating with the second telecommunication user, and transmitting of the display information includes the telecommunication network sending the display information that is a function of the corresponding reference number to the second telecommunication device, and said determining provides, in the event of a call recipient being selected for whom there is no data record in the allocation map, a predefined reference number of a predefined multimedia object.
