Abstract
What is disclosed is a method of operating a video system. The method includes, in a video server, monitoring a quality indicator for wireless communications between a wireless communication system and a wireless communication device, transferring reference frames of a video for delivery to the wireless communication device over the wireless communication system if the quality indicator indicates a particular quality level and stopping the transfer of the reference frames if the quality indicator does not indicate the particular quality level, and transferring update frames of the video for delivery to the wireless communication device over the wireless communication system without regard to whether the quality indicator indicates the particular quality level. The method also includes, in the wireless communication device, receiving the reference frames and the update frames of the video over the wireless communication system, and displaying the video.
