    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method and variable quality playback system for selecting a quality of media content. The method comprising receiving (S4001) media content of a data segment (1010) over at least one network path (1031a, 1031b, 1031c), the media content being encoded with network or application-layer code and storing (S4002) the media content in a network or application-layer decoder (1050). The network or application-layer decoder (1050) is configured to decode the media content and provide decoded media content to a buffer (5061) associated with a media renderer (1060). The method further comprises obtaining a decoding metric of the network or application-layer decoder (1050), the decoding metric indicating a property of the decoding process and selecting the quality of the media content of subsequent data segments based on the decoding metric.

    Abstract: A method for delivering media content to one or more clients over a distributed system is disclosed. The method may include generating a plurality of network-coded symbols from a plurality of original symbols representing a first media asset. The method may further include generating an original plurality of coded variants of the first media asset. The method may further include distributing a first coded variant of the original plurality of coded variants to a first cache on a first server device for storage in the first cache. The method may further include distributing a second coded variant of the original plurality of coded variants to a second cache on a second server device for storage in the second cache.
