Abstract
Encoding a real-time and non-real-time video stream, encapsulating the encoded video stream along with the decoding software corresponding to the encoding program into active packets at the Application and Services layer, and transmitting active the packets to the receiving terminal, which then supplies the receiver with the necessary decoding software to play any type of encoded video stream without having the associated decoding software pre-loaded.
