In an embodiment, a first media presentation session is established between a first Source and the Sink, and a second media presentation session between a second Source and the Sink. First and second media streams are streamed to the Sink by the first and second Sources, respectively. The Sink presents the first and second media streams in respective portions of a display screen, and detects user input at the Sink that is indicative of a trigger to transfer data originated from the first Source to the second Source. The Sink coordinates with one or both of the first Source and the second Source to facilitate the data to be delivered to the second Source in response to the detection. As a result of the coordination, the second Source receives the first Source-originated data (e.g., from the first Source directly, or via the Sink).

Sharing data between a plurality of source devices that are each connected to a sink device

In an example, a method for transmitting data includes determining, at a Universal Serial Bus (USB) host, a USB data transfer type of USB data being transmitted from the host device to a USB device, and determining a priority of the USB data based on the determined USB data transfer type. The example method also includes controlling transfer of the USB data from a protocol adaptation layer (PAL) of the USB host to a network layer of the USB host based on the determined priority.
