    摘要: A processing system including at least one processor may obtain a selection of a desired perceptual quality for a video and selects a first video chunk from among a first plurality of video chunks, wherein the first plurality of video chunks is associated with a first time block of the video, wherein the selecting is based upon a manifest file of the video, wherein each video chunk of the first plurality of video chunks is associated with a respective perceptual quality and a respective encoding bitrate, wherein the first video chunk is part of a subset of the first plurality of video chunks for which the respective perceptual quality matches the desired perceptual quality within a predefined threshold tolerance, and wherein the respective encoding bitrate of the first video chunk is lower than a highest encoding bitrate associated with the subset of the first plurality of video chunks. The processing system may obtain the first video chunk from a server and store the first video chunk in a buffer.

    摘要: Devices, computer-readable media, and methods for differential adaptive bitrate streaming based on scene complexity are disclosed. In one example, a method includes inferring, by a processor, a complexity of a scene contained in a first chunk of an adaptive bitrate streaming video, wherein the first chunk is a next chunk of the adaptive bitrate streaming video to be downloaded to an adaptive bitrate streaming video player, and wherein the complexity indicates a relative amount of spatial and temporal information contained in the scene, and selecting, by the processor, a first track from which to download the first chunk, wherein the first track is one of a plurality of tracks containing the first chunk, and wherein each track of the plurality of tracks encoded the first chunk at a different bitrate, and wherein a bitrate of the first track is proportional to the complexity of the scene as inferred.
