Abstract:
1. A method of providing scalable video coded video content with added media content, comprising: in a remote site server with respect to an end-user station, providing an original scalable video coded video content having header data and including original video encoding parameters for transmission in a bit stream; in a proximal site server with respect to said end-user station, receiving said original scalable video coded video content; extracting the video encoding parameters from the video stream header and decoding said original scalable video coded video encoding parameters; selecting a complementary media content to be added to the original video content; modifying said original video encoding parameters of the video stream header in order to provide modified video encoding parameters including complementary media content specificities by modifying at least one header of the scalable video coded stream; modifying said bit stream in order to integrate the video data of said complementary media content to provide a modified bit stream; providing said complementary media content in a form of an additional layer integrated into the original scalable bit stream; sending said modified bit stream including said modified video encoding parameters and said additional layer to said end-user station for decoding of a composite signal including additional media content separated from original video content.
