Abstract

In a streaming media method, a set of one or more server devices can provide media playlists that skip media segments. For example, a client device can receive a full media playlist from a server device, and the full media playlist can indicate that the server device supports providing updated playlists that are condensed by skipping media segments. The client device can then request an updated playlist that skips media segments and use that updated playlist to request and receive steaming content.
