Abstract:
A system and method for receiving video from multiple sources, compositing those sources and then republishing the composited video as a source to a virtual camera driver endpoint. In one embodiment, the present method comprises displaying multiple media streams, represented by worksurface image on a shared display. The shared display worksurface image is then re-encoded, and the re-encoded composite image is transmitted to a client computer, where the re-encoded image is transcoded to simulate a device connected to the client computer. The transcoded media stream is then transmitted to a teleconferencing system.

Claim (Index 12):
A method for multi-source collaboration within a web conferencing system comprising:\n combining video received from two or more client computers; representing the media streams within a worksurface image; sending a composite video image of the shared worksurface to a video source proxy; encoding the composite image and re-transmitting the image to a virtual device network interface, via a display host-to-client protocol. displaying the shared worksurface image is on a connected display device to provide a collaborative view of the media streams; transmitting, via the video source proxy, the encoded video source to a client computer virtual device network interface; wherein the virtual device network interface exposes the received video in a format that is appropriate to a device being emulated; wherein the virtual device network interface transcodes the video stream into a device-encoded video format that represents a valid device on the host computer; wherein a web conferencing application selects the virtual device network interface as an input source for one of the client computers that supports sharing that device; and sending the device-encoded video format to web conferencing computer.
