Abstract

A communication link from a first telecommunication device to a second telecommunication device is established via a telecommunication network. Several multimedia objects of a telecommunication user are stored in the second telecommunication device along with a reference number. An allocation map is defined which indicates allocation of a specific call receiver to a specific reference number of a multimedia object. A request is then sent from the first telecommunication device associated with the first telecommunication user to the telecommunication network, the request indicating that a communication link should be established from the first telecommunication device to the second telecommunication device allocated to a selected call receiver. The reference number that is designated to the selected call receiver is determined based on the allocation map, and a call signal is transmitted to the second telecommunication device together with a displayed piece of information in accordance with the determined reference number, whereupon a multimedia object is reproduced by the second telecommunication device according to the displayed piece of information.
