Media distribution systems and multi-media conversion server

摘要

An object of the present invention is to realize a multi-media communication terminal wherein power consumption is reduced and necessary transmission capacity between terminals is reduced at an economical cost. A distribution system transmits and receives media information via a server that relays a multi-media communication data between a transmission terminal and a receiving terminal, wherein video information is stored in a speech and video synthesis server attached to a distribution server in advance, and at the time of a communication, converted into output video information in accordance with media decoding capability of a receiving terminal based on already stored video information, thereby transmitting the output video information to the receiving terminal.
