FIELD: information technology.
SUBSTANCE: machine-implemented method of compressing video includes executing one or more applications, receiving packet streams from users and routing said packets to one or more applications. Said packets include user control signal input; the one or more applications are configured to calculate A/V data in response to the user control signal input. The method also includes a step of receiving A/V data from one or more applications and deriving therefrom streaming compressed A/V data with short waiting time. The method also includes routing the streaming compressed A/V data with short waiting time to each user over a corresponding link. If a portion of the routed streaming compressed A/V data with short waiting time results in marked virtual artifacts, then generation of forward error correction (FEC) data for protecting a portion of the routed streaming compressed A/V data with short waiting time is performed.
EFFECT: high protection of data transmitted over a communication channel.
