Abstract

A multilingual multipoint videoconferencing system provides real-time translation of speech by conferees. Audio streams containing speech may be converted into text and inserted as subtitles into video streams. Speech may also be translated from one language to another, with the translated speech inserted into video streams as and choose the subtitles or replacing the original audio stream with speech in the other language generated by a text to speech engine.
