In this paper, we propose a real time video codec adapter for enabling video communications with terminals having a codec which is different from each other. When multimedia services are playing with an office service phone such as a video phone or software phone which has video capability, each terminal is not being considered to have optimized video or voice codec. So when a video phone with only one type of video codec is used in the video streaming service which requires another type of codec, the streaming service is not successful without codec transformation. The real time codec adapter in this paper provides a real time code transformation which enables communication services such as video conferencing between terminals which have different codec.
