Abstract
Techniques are described for multicast service translation. A router can provide access to a particular source for an Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) channel that is most appropriate for the subscriber despite the subscriber requesting the IPTV channel from a different source. The most appropriate source can be identified based upon a bit rate or quality of service associated with the subscriber and/or a bit rate or quality of service associated with each of one or more alternate sources of the IPTV channel. The router can receive a request to join a multicast stream from a client device of the subscriber that identifies a source associated with an IPTV channel, identify a different source of the IPTV channel for that subscriber, and transmit a different join request destined to the different source.
