Described each terminal is carried out capabilities exchange again with MCU respectively; And
Send audio-video frequency media stream by the ability after exchanging again between MCU and the terminal.
Wherein:
Described many pictures are four pictures.
When video conferencing switches to four pictures from single-image, MCU state its only have H.261QCIF the video reception ability and video transmitting capacity H.261CIF, statement simultaneously is maximum, and to receive bandwidth be that 1/4th and maximum transmission bandwidth of meeting video bandwidth is the meeting video bandwidth.MCU at first preserves the active conference ability before the transmitting capacity collection is arranged, so that recover single-image.
When video conferencing switches to single-image from four pictures, provide single-image Video processing ability by the MCU turnkey console to MCU, MCU sends out capability set according to this Video processing ability to each terminal.
When in the cascade video conferencing, carrying out switching between single-image and four pictures, unify control, only require to carry out capabilities exchange with this from each terminal on the MCU again according to the switching of main MCU from MCU by main MCU.
The present invention carries out under the situation of coding and decoding video not needing, and just can realize H.261 video at single-image and many pictures, the especially dynamic switching between four pictures, and it neither needs to take a large amount of MCU resources, also can not increase slowed-down video; Simultaneously in the process of the switching of single-image and four pictures, can customize effect after the dynamic switching.

Embodiment
Consult shown in Figure 1ly, generally speaking, the user can use this system group network figure to use video conferencing.Conference system is by multipoint control unit (MCU), MCU turnkey console, terminal and communication network.The user can pass through turnkey console/terminal and hold a H.261 meeting, flows to guild's view TV by sending and receive audio-video frequency media by communication network between MCU and the terminal.In the process that meeting is held, can carry out the dynamic switching of single-image/four pictures by turnkey console or terminal.
Consult shown in Figure 2ly, in a meeting H.261, realize that dynamically the main flow process of switching is as follows between single-image and four pictures:
1, MCU and terminal room carry out the single-image video conferencing;
2, issue the picture switching command by the MCU turnkey console to MCU;
3, MCU is by sending corresponding capability set to each terminal;
4, each terminal and MCU carry out capabilities exchange;
5, send by the result of capabilities exchange again between MCU and the terminal and the sound Media Stream is looked in reception.
MCU is by carrying out the actual code stream that capabilities exchange comes control terminal to send again with terminal, thereby reaches the dynamic switching of single-image/four pictures.
Consult shown in Figure 3ly, the handling process that the single-image meeting switches to four frame sessions is as follows:
1, MCU and terminal room carry out the single-image video conferencing.
2, issue the order that switches to four pictures from single-image to MCU by the MCU turnkey console.
3, the terminal transmitting capacity exchange request of MCU in meeting.
In capability set, MCU requires to state that it only has video reception ability H.261QCIF, and video transmitting capacity H.261CIF states that simultaneously the maximum reception of MCU video bandwidth is 1/4 of a meeting video bandwidth, and maximum transmission bandwidth is the meeting video bandwidth.
MCU at first preserves the ability of active conference before the transmitting capacity collection, so that the user recovers original single-image.
