Abstract: In embodiments, apparatuses, methods and storage media are described that are associated with content distribution. An encoder may be configured to encode portions of content, such as video and/or audio data, utilizing different sets of encoding control variable settings. The different sets of encoding control variable settings may include different resolutions, different frame rates, and/or different compression levels. Different segments and/or different portions of a single segment of data may be encoded using different sets of encoding control variable settings. The sets of encoding control variable settings may be selected based on quality of the encoded video and/or audio data. Instances of video and/or audio data encoded with different sets may be compared to the data from which they were generated to determine one or more quality metrics. One of the instances may then be selected for provisioning to a content consumption device.

Abstract: In various embodiments, an encoder may be configured to divide received content in a first format into one or more segments and then to transcode the previously-divided segments into other formats and/or bitrates for presentation. In various embodiments, the encoder may include multiple segmenting computing devices configured to perform the dividing of the content into segments. The encoder may also include multiple transcoding computing devices configured to transcode the divided segments into a format for presentation. In various embodiments, the computing devices may be configured to communicate with each other via a network to determine which content has been divided into segments and which divided segments have been transcoded. The determination may be performed autonomously by the devices. Thus, in various embodiments, the devices included in the encoder may be configured to perform segmenting and transcoding on a distributed basis without necessarily requiring coordination by any one device.

Abstract translation: 在各种实施例中，编码器可以被配置为将接收到的第一格式的内容划分为一个或多个片段，然后将先前划分的片段代码转换为其他格式和/或比特率以供呈现。 在各种实施例中，编码器可以包括被配置为执行将内容划分成段的多个分段计算设备。 编码器还可以包括多个代码转换计算设备，其被配置为将划分的段代码转换为用于呈现的格式。 在各种实施例中，计算设备可以被配置为经由网络彼此通信以确定哪些内容已经被划分成段并且哪些划分的段已经被代码转换。 该确定可以由设备自主执行。 因此，在各种实施例中，包括在编码器中的设备可以被配置为在分布式基础上执行分段和代码转换，而不需要任何一个设备的协调。

Abstract: Apparatuses, methods and storage medium associated with content consumption are disclosed herein. In embodiments, an apparatus may include a decoder, a user interface engine, and a presentation engine. The decoder may be configured to receive and decode a streaming of the content. The user interface engine may be configured to receive user commands. The presentation engine may be configured to present the content as the content is decoded from the stream, in response to received user commands. Further, the decoder, the user interface engine, the presentation engine, and/or combination/sub-combination thereof, may be arranged to adapt the presentation to enhance user experience during response to a first of the user commands, where the adaption is in addition to a nominal response to the first user command. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
