1. A method for providing a second digital video stream, the method comprising:
in a collecting step, a central server collecting from a first participant client a first primary digital video stream, from a second participant client a second primary digital video stream and from a third participant client a third primary digital video stream, the central server being accessible in a logically centralized manner, providing a video communication service and/or being comprised in a participant client;
in a first production step, the central server automatically producing a first produced digital video stream based on said first and second primary digital video streams, the first produced digital video stream being continuously produced for publication with a first latency;
in a second production step, the central server automatically producing the second digital video stream based on said first, second and third primary digital video streams, said second production step comprising automatically detecting events and/or patterns is said primary digital video streams and basing automatic production decisions on said events and/or patterns, the second digital video stream being continuously produced for publication with a second latency, the second latency being larger than the first latency; and
in a publishing step, the central server automatically and continuously providing at least one of said first primary digital video stream, said second primary digital video stream and said first produced digital video stream to at least one of the first participating client and the second participating client and continuously providing said second digital video stream to at least one other participating client.
