Abstract

The disclosure relates to a method and system for audio/video communication, and a client. The method includes setting up a connection with a server for audio/video communication, opening multiple windows for the audio/video communication; obtaining an enabling instruction for enabling audio/video communication of any one of the windows for audio/video communication amongst the multiple windows for audio/video communication; disabling audio/video communication for other windows for audio/video communication amongst the multiple windows for audio/video communication according to the enabling instruction. The method and system for audio/video communication obtain enabling instructions from the user for enabling any window for audio/video communication, and disable audio/video communication of the other windows for audio/video communication according to the enabling instruction, while the user would not have to close those unneeded windows for audio/video communication one by one, thereby improving the operation facility greatly, saving time and loosening the user's burden, and meeting the users' demands.
