Abstract

Embodiments provide techniques for optimizing ABR profiles for broadcast channels at a network gateway device. Embodiments include monitoring, at a network gateway device for a network, a plurality of client devices within the network to determine adaptive bitrate (ABR) streaming information for a first broadcast channel of a plurality of broadcast channels. One or more performance attributes of the network are determined. Embodiments include selecting one or more ABR profiles, of a plurality of ABR profiles for the first broadcast channel, based on the ABR streaming information and the one or more performance attributes of the network. An updated manifest file specifying the selected one or more ABR profiles for the first broadcast channel is generated, and the updated manifest file is transmitted to the plurality of client devices.
