Basically all that I'm saying (and that I think you're saying) is: all spatial fragmentations (be it clipping ==? cropping, highlighting, even rotating) can be done purely client-side, however, always requesting the untouched (spatially-speaking) resource from the server. I guess we agree on that. Now my question is: are we envisioning servers to handle delivery of spatial fragments of video/image resources? Say, on a split-screen resource (think C64, like http://img.youtube.com/vi/WZDoPEmo0KU/0.jpg), the delivery of a video of just the player 2's view (i.e. the server would somehow live-re-encode the video before it is delivered)? Clearer now, or did I cause even more confusion? Sorry in either case. Cheers, Tom -- Thomas Steiner, Research Scientist, Google Inc. http://blog.tomayac.com, http://twitter.com/tomayac
