1. A system for receiving multi-format data, the system comprising:
a data link for receiving a multiplexed transmission over a bandwidth-limited connection with a system in a remote location, the connection being limited to an allocated bandwidth, wherein the multiplexed transmission includes first packets of data of a first format captured as a stream of data multiplexed with second packets of data of a second format according to a ratio;
a demultiplexer coupled to the data link to receive the multiplexed transmission and output the first packets of data and the second packets of data;
a decoder coupled to the demultiplexer to receive the first packets of data and assemble the first packets of data into an assembled stream of data, wherein the ratio is based on the allocated bandwidth such that the second packets of data are multiplexed into the multiplexed transmission without interrupting the assembled stream of data; and
a file reconstructor coupled to the demultiplexer to receive and reconstruct the second packets of data.
