Abstract
Described embodiments include a system that includes a network interface and a processor. The processor is configured to monitor, via the network interface, a streaming of an encrypted video stream, in a sequence of traffic bursts, from a video server to a user terminal, and, based on the monitoring, and without decrypting the video stream, to estimate a bit rate at which the video stream was streamed, and to estimate, using the estimated bit rate, a performance metric of the video stream. Other embodiments are also described.
