Abstract:
A recording medium having recorded thereon a data compression multiplexing control program for a visual telephone apparatus which includes a speech compression circuit for compressing speech to be sent out to an object apparatus of communication, an image compression circuit for compressing an image to be sent out to the object apparatus of communication, a user data processing application; an input device for inputting data including character data to said user data application, a multiplexer for multiplexing the speech compressed by said speech compression circuit, the image compressed by said image compression circuit and data produced by said user data processing application and sending out resulting multiplexed data to the object apparatus of communication, and a control circuit, the data compression multiplexing control program causing said control circuit to:detect whether or not said user data processing application is operating; detect, when it is detected that said user data processing application is operating, an amount of input data inputted from said input device per a predetermined unit of time; and produce band control information for setting a band to be allocated to the data produced by said user data processing application in response to the detected amount of input data and output the band control information to said multiplexer.
