<p>A videotelephone communication system allows easily accessible broadcasting capability by means of a videophone. A videotelephony server VS (22; 26) is provided for a corresponding local exchange (10; 14), and is associated with a video broadcasting system VBS (20; 24). The VBS (20; 24) allows access for a video caller wishing to broadcast by means of a videophone (e.g. V1) to a channel of the videotelephony server (22; 26). The VBS (20; 24) then allows access from calls on an associated number, which may be the video number of the broadcasting videophone (e.g. V1), to the broadcasting channel of the server (22; 26), so that the broadcasting caller can broadcast to a number of video viewers who have called in on other videophones (e.g. V2, V3, V4).</p> |
