Abstract

A method for broadcasting video data sequences by a server to a client terminal via a network includes generating a request by the client terminal following an event, sending the request to the server, the request including a video sequence broadcasting order to the client terminal, the video sequence defining a transition between a current or “father” state and a subsequent or “child” state, each state being associated with a static final image and the aforementioned server including a memory configured to store an identifier of each state, a transition table starting from each state, compressed data corresponding to a video sequence associated with a transition from one state to another, and verifying by the server that the child state associated with the broadcasting order is a known state in the transition table starting from the parent state.
