Video processing 1: multirate VoD (1)• Problem:
– Single bitrate – Lower than needed– Higher than the download engine
• Solution:– Download the video at multiple rates
– Always download the lowest quality
– Switch to a lower rate/quality when needed
– Switch to a higher rate/quality when possible
• Flicker-free switching presents technical video-encoding difficulty
• Solution to this: modify encoding such that it is based on time and not on Groups of Pictures (GOPs)

Video processing 1: multirate VoD (2)
• A controller checks the sizes of the buffers of different video qualities and based on these, forwards the video of a certain quality to the video player

P2P FUSION DEV. CONFERENCE 2008
• Need all data in order
• Cannot distribute hashes beforehand
• .torrent/.tstream contains public key
• Verify data with signatures, instead of hashes.– Included in the pieces

• Unlike BT based file download, order does matter for VoD/Live Streaming
• Real-Time based constraints: Pieces needed in a specific order and on time.
• Bandwidth constraints: Download speed >= Video speed.
BitTorrent Modification

P2P FUSION DEV. CONFERENCE 2008
Conclusion
13th Nov 2008 Ali Abbas 7
• Respects BT properties: – Easy to modify BT clients– Efficient data exchange– Encourages uploading
• Respects Streaming properties:– Download video in-order for playback– Codec-agnostic– Video-on-Demand and Live video

API: Download ConfigurationWhere is the content saved to?
• A DownloadStartupConfig instance defines how a torrent is downloaded:
– Normal/video-on-demand mode
– Up/download rate limits
– Where to save data
