Patent number: 9596283Abstract: Content may be received at an edge location in one format, but delivered to a terminal on an access network in another format. The received content may be transcoded at the edge location. The transcoded content may be stored, or immediately delivered. The transcoded content may be fragmented prior to storage. Multiple copies of the transcoded content may be maintained in multiple formats. These formats may be aligned with one another such that delivery of the content can include delivering portions of the content in one format and other portions of the content in another format.Type: GrantFiled: April 29, 2013Date of Patent: March 14, 2017Assignee: Comcast Cable Communications, LLCInventors: Dan E.
