Claim One:
1. A method comprising: capturing video data using a video source disposed at an acquisition end, the video data comprising a plurality of individual frames of video data that are captured during a first period of time, the individual frames of video data being captured consecutively at a known frame rate; automatically forming a first data-frame-group comprising at least two non-consecutively captured individual frames of video data selected from the plurality of individual frames of video data, the individual frames of the at least two non-consecutively captured individual frames of video data captured at substantially regular time intervals during the first period of time, the first data-frame-group comprising non-consecutive frames including both the at least two non-consecutively captured individual frames of video data, without all intermediate frames of video data therebetween; transmitting the first data-frame-group from the acquisition end to a remotely located server via an IP network; automatically forming a second data-frame-group comprising at least two other non-consecutively captured individual frames of video data selected from the plurality of individual frames of video data, the individual frames of the at least two other non-consecutively captured individual frames of video data captured at substantially regular time intervals during the first period of time, the second data-frame-group comprising non-consecutive frames including both the at least two other non-consecutively captured individual frames of video data, without all intermediate frames of video data therebetween, and the second data-frame-group and the first data-frame-group in combination comprising fewer individual frames of video data than the plurality of individual frames of video data; and, transmitting the second data-frame-group from the acquisition end to the remotely located server via the IP network, wherein the second data-frame-group is transmitted at a time that is separated from a time of transmission of the first data-frame-group by an interval of time that is longer than a time interval between capturing a last frame of the first data-frame-group and a first frame of the second data-frame-group, and wherein the first data-frame group and the second data-frame group are both formed absent performing video analytics processing of the plurality of individual frames of video data that are captured during the first period of time.
