Abstract
A computerized method for transmitting one or more video streams, the method may include receiving at least one input video stream that comprises visual information obtained from multiple fields of view that differ from each other; converting the at least one input video stream to a group of encoded independent self-contained video streams (EISCVSs), by performing a codec-agnostic process; wherein different EISCVSs comprise visual information from different spatial segments of the at least one input video stream; receiving a first request to receive video information related to a first direction related to a first user; generating a first video stream that comprises a first sub-set of EISCVSs that is related to the first direction; andsending the first video stream to a device of the first user, over a first communication link that has a first bandwidth that is lower than a bandwidth required to convey the input video stream.
