PROVIDING THIRD-PARTY DYNAMIC CONTENT WITHIN ADAPTIVE STREAMING VIDEO - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240223637 titled 'PROVIDING THIRD-PARTY DYNAMIC CONTENT WITHIN ADAPTIVE STREAMING VIDEO

The abstract of the patent application describes techniques for serving a manifest file of an adaptive streaming video, including receiving a request for the manifest file from a user device. The video is encoded at different reference bitrates and divided into segments to generate video segment files. The manifest file contains an ordered list of URLs referencing video segment files encoded at a particular reference bitrate. A source manifest file indicating the set of video segment files is identified based on the request. An issued manifest file with URLs from different domains is generated and transmitted to the user device in response to the request.

• The patent application focuses on serving manifest files for adaptive streaming videos.
• Different reference bitrates are used for encoding the video, which is then divided into segments.
• The manifest file includes URLs referencing video segment files encoded at specific reference bitrates.
• A source manifest file is identified based on the user device's request.
• An issued manifest file with URLs from different domains is generated and sent to the user device.

Potential Applications: - Streaming services - Video-on-demand platforms - Online education platforms

Problems Solved: - Efficient delivery of adaptive streaming videos - Seamless playback experience for users - Simplified management of video segment files

Benefits: - Improved video quality - Enhanced user experience - Optimal utilization of network resources

Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Adaptive Streaming Manifest File Delivery for Video Platforms" This technology can be used in streaming services, video-on-demand platforms, and online education platforms to enhance the delivery of adaptive streaming videos, improving user experience and optimizing network resources.

Questions about Adaptive Streaming Manifest File Delivery: 1. How does this technology improve the delivery of adaptive streaming videos? This technology enhances the delivery of adaptive streaming videos by efficiently serving manifest files with URLs referencing video segment files encoded at specific reference bitrates.

2. What are the potential applications of this technology beyond video streaming platforms? This technology can also be applied in live streaming services, online gaming platforms, and virtual event platforms to optimize the delivery of multimedia content.

Original Abstract Submitted

techniques for serving a manifest file of an adaptive streaming video include receiving a request for the manifest file from a user device. the video is encoded at different reference bitrates and each encoded reference bitrate is divided into segments to generate video segment files. the manifest file includes an ordered list of universal resource locators (urls) that reference a set of video segment files encoded at a particular reference bitrate. a source manifest file that indicates the set of video segment files is identified based on the request. an issued manifest file that includes a first url and a second url is generated based on the source manifest file. the first url references a first domain and the second url references a second domain that is different from the first domain. the issued manifest file is transmitted to the user device as a response to the request.
