A technology very similar to this plays a plot point in Vernor Vinge's 1992 novel A Fire Upon the Deep.

In his universe, both the interstellar net and combat links between ships are low bandwidth. Hence, video is interpolated between sync frames or recreated from old footage. Vinge calls the resulting video "evocations".
