  • Patent number: 11652691
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for optimizing network performance on a computer device to improve quality of experience by determining which network settings on the computing device to adjust. A clustering algorithm may identify various classes of networks and a classification algorithm may determine a network class specific to a network on a computing device. The effects of certain network settings for that networks class may be determined and the network setting and/or settings that optimizes the network performance may be promoted. The system may periodically analyze network data to recalculate the appropriate networks class and may determine different network settings based on the recalculation, facilitating mid-session improvements to the quality of experience.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10778991
    Abstract: Encoding of a video file includes determining a plurality of scenes associated with a video file, and determining at least one group of pictures (GOP). Starting sequentially from a beginning frame of the video file, the system identifies a first GOP having a first encoding error characteristic. The system changes a bitrate allocation setting from a first setting to a second setting based on the encoding error characteristic. The system identifies a second frame having a second encoding error characteristic, and changes a second bitrate allocation setting from the second setting to a third setting based on the second encoding error characteristic. The system generates an encoded video file that includes an encoded plurality of scenes.
