Abstract

The invention relates to generating at a client a display having a graphical and/or media components. A method for generating a media presentation at a client includes transmitting output from an application program executing on a server to the client, identifying a media stream within an application output, receiving an compressed data set representing at least a portion of the media stream and transmitting the compressed data set to the client. At least one of timing and control information associated with the media stream is captured and transmitted to the client.
