The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for communicating multiple live video feeds over the internet. Users may be able to view a plurality of remote locations in real time. In another embodiment of the invention, users are able to remotely control a video picture of a distant location. The remote control may be either actual control of a remote video camera or perceived remote control by the manipulation of audiovisual data streams. In one embodiment, text, graphics, and other video information supplement one or more video pictures to provide an educational and entertaining system. In accordance with the present invention, information is accessible to users who are viewing multiple video pictures. The information relates and describes what is being viewed. Users who have different types of equipment, with different data rates, are able to access and use the system of the present invention. In another embodiment, users may interactively communicate with a video lecturer by asking questions and receiving answers. The invention may be connected to, and in communication with, broadcast and/or cable television systems.

The medium of claim 8, wherein the balancing logic is generated without input from a user of the data conversion system regarding how to balance the data in the source system with data in the target system. 11. The medium of claim 8, wherein the conversion logic converts data from a first format to a second format. 12. The medium of claim 8, wherein the conversion logic renames fields in the data. 13. The medium of claim 8, wherein the conversion logic modifies data types of at least some of the data. 14. The medium of claim 8, wherein the balancing logic compares the data from the source system with the converted data for the target system. 15. In a computer system, a method for converting original data used in a source data processing system into converted data for use in a target data processing system, comprising the steps of: providing a script that specifies how to convert the original data into the converted data; parsing the script with a parser to generate both conversion logic for converting the original data into the converted data and balancing logic for ensuring that the conversion logic properly converted the original data into the converted data; and wherein the conversion logic and the balancing logic comprise computer instructions and wherein the balancing logic is automatically generated by the parser based on the conversion logic. 16. The method of claim 15, wherein the computer instructions are in a high level programming language. 17. The method of claim 15, wherein the script is written in a scripting language specifically designed for data conversion. 18. The method of claim 15, wherein the balancing logic compares the original data with the converted data.
