ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for media communication in a communication system. In one embodiment, the apparatus comprises: a processor; and a routine running on the processor for negotiating with the remote processing machine a selection of at least one media type using a media type selection protocol that supports the description of a plurality of media types including audio, video and data, and to configure, according to the selection, the apparatus to process media data packets received from and to be transmitted to the remote processing machine over a packet switched network.
