Abstract
In one implementation, a method includes obtaining a plurality of representations of a digital video asset. The plurality of representations may include a plurality of frames The method also includes generating first data comprising data indicative of temporal dependencies and frame decoding dependencies for the plurality of frames. The frame decoding dependencies may include a plurality of switching points between the plurality of representations of the digital video asset. The method further includes receiving a request for a first representation of the digital video asset from a first computing device and transmitting the first data to the first computing device based on the request.
