Abstract
Systems and methods are described herein for dynamically detecting repetitive content. The content that is detected as repetitive may be cached for longer periods of time. Subsequent re-transmissions of the repetitive content to user devices may be done by retrieving the content from a cache rather than requesting the content from a transcoder and/or a packager. The repetitive content segments may be retrieved from a cache, thereby saving transcoding and other system resources. A data file may be generated to map the stored segments to their cache locations and to indicate a predicted time for future transmission of the content.
