Abstract

A first manifest request may be received and, in response, a first manifest may be requested. Next, at least one interstitial content insertion source may be queried based on the first manifest and, in response to querying the interstitial content insertion source, interstitial content details may be retrieved from the at least one interstitial content insertion source. Then it may be determined that a version of interstitial content corresponding to the interstitial content details does not exist in a service provider back end at same bitrates as content corresponding to the first manifest. Next, local ingest and encoding of the interstitial content to the service provider back end may then be triggered in response to determining that the version of interstitial content corresponding to the interstitial content details does not exist in the service provider back end at the same bitrates as the content corresponding to the first manifest.
