Most cited patent:
7058721 – Dynamic quality adjustment based on changing streaming constraints has received 76 citations.
This invention improves video quality based on changing streaming conditions. It sends a video stream to a client with specific limitations, using a primary source for some video information. When a signal indicates relaxed constraints (e.g., freeze frame or slow motion), higher-quality video from a secondary source is delivered to the client. This can be a still image or preprocessed video data. When a lower presentation rate is requested, the freed-up bandwidth is used to send the improved quality video.
