Abstract

A method and a device for transmitting at least a portion of a signal during a video conference session is disclosed. In one aspect, a method of transmitting at least a portion of a signal acquired by a first terminal to one second terminal during a video conference session, the signal comprising an audio stream and a video stream conveying images acquired with the help of one video image sensor is disclosed. The method comprises obtaining a parameter representative of a quality of the acquisition performed by the sensor of the video images conveyed by the video stream of the signal, and a process of notifying the first terminal of information representative of the acquisition quality. If this parameter is representative of an acquisition quality that is higher than a predetermined level, both the audio stream and the video stream of the signal are transmitted to the second terminal. Otherwise, the audio stream is transmitted to the second terminal and the video stream is blocked so that it is not transmitted to the second terminal.
