Abstract
In one embodiment, a method receives information for a video entity where a video delivery system delivers the video entity as a plurality of video assets using different video delivery methods. The method generates bundles for the video assets. Also, dependencies are generated between bundles when two bundles include control data parameters that are the same. The method then stores control data parameters for the bundles for the plurality of video assets based on the dependencies. A second bundle is stored with the dependency on a first bundle and the second bundle includes a second set of control data parameters for the second bundle that is different from the first set of control data parameters included in the first bundle. When the second bundle is selected, the method accesses the first set of control data parameters and the second set of control data parameters for the second bundle.
