Picture transmission method, picture transmission method program, storage medium which stores picture transmission method program, and picture transmission apparatus

摘要

A picture transmission method is disclosed which involves encoding moving picture data and transmitting the encoded data. The picture transmission method includes the steps of encoding firstly the moving picture data into a moving picture stream for transmission at a predetermined data transfer rate, and encoding secondly, based on position information acquired from a transmission destination, a part of the moving picture data which constitutes a partial picture region for transmission at a higher resolution than the first encoding step.
