A method for generating an at least 2-dimensional virtual representation of a real environment is disclosed, the generation being performed by a mixed virtual reality headset intended to be worn by a user, the mixed virtual reality headset being associated with at least one interface device. The generation method includes acquiring relative coordinates in the real environment, corresponding to a position of the interface device in the real environment; following an interaction of the user on the interface device, determining, as a function of the relative coordinates of the position of the interface device in the real environment, a corresponding point in the virtual representation; and generating the virtual representation from at least the point associated with the relative coordinates of the acquired position of the interface device. The development also relates to a mixed virtual reality headset and a corresponding interface device.

A method is provided for transmission, by a server in a communication network, of a multimedia message, which includes a video sequence, to a remote terminal. The method includes detecting the video sequence in the message by the server, wherein the method includes the following additional steps: coding by the server of the video sequence in a scalable stream including a base layer and one or more refinement layers, when the video sequence is not already coded in such a stream, storage of at least one of the refinement layers in a storage server, and sending the base layer and of a link to recover the at least one duly stored refinement layer to the remote terminal.
