  • Cross-period quality smoothing in adaptive bitrate algorithm
    Patent number: 12777214
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a method calculates a reward function for an adaptive bitrate function that is based on a bandwidth and profiles in a profile ladder for a current segment of content. The reward function calculates a first profile should be selected for the current segment and, based on a previously selected profile from a prior segment and profiles in the profile ladder, changes the first profile to a second profile from the profile ladder. The method requests the second profile from the profile ladder for the current segment.

  • CROSS-PERIOD QUALITY SMOOTHING IN ADAPTIVE BITRATE ALGORITHM
    Publication number: 20250047921
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a method generates a reward function for an adaptive bitrate function that is based on a bandwidth and profiles in a profile ladder for a current segment of content. The reward function indicates a first profile should be selected for the current segment. The method performs a quality change analysis to select a second profile from the profile. The quality change analysis analyzes a quality change that is based on a previously selected profile from a prior segment and profiles in the profile ladder. The second profile is requested from the profile ladder for the current segment.
