Abstract
Media delivery subsystems can deliver media files, received from a media distribution device, to end users. The media distribution device can determine a current order of distribution, specifying an order in which the media distribution device currently intends to transmit the media files, and transmit a preview message indicating the current order of distribution. The media delivery subsystems can return temporal priority feedback messages to the media distribution device based on the preview message. These temporal priority feedback messages indicate a temporal priority of the plurality of media files from a perspective of the individual media delivery subsystems. The media distribution device can determine that the current order of distribution is to be re-evaluated, determine a revised order of distribution based, on the temporal priority feedback messages, and transmit the plurality of media files to the plurality of media delivery subsystems in the revised order of distribution.
