Abstract
A method is provided for managing in a local network the adaptive progressive downloading of digital contents by at least one terminal. The terminal is able to simultaneously receive several digital contents to be played back on a screen. The method includes: obtaining an instantaneous downloading bitrate for the at least one terminal; obtaining a priority for each content to be played back on the terminal as a function of a datum relating to the content on the terminal; and requesting downloading of each content according to its level of quality dependent on the priority obtained for the content.
