Abstract

A method includes: accessing a video in a passthrough rendition encoded according to a passthrough bitrate and a passthrough resolution; and segmenting the video. The method further includes transmitting a first passthrough segment to a first device in response to receiving a first request for a first playback segment of the video in the passthrough rendition from the first device, the first playback segment corresponding to the first passthrough segment. The method also includes, in response to receiving a second request for the first playback segment of the video in a first rendition from a second device, the first rendition defining a first bitrate below the passthrough bitrate and a first resolution below the passthrough resolution: transcoding the first passthrough segment into the first rendition segment in the first rendition according to the first bitrate and the first resolution; and transmitting the first rendition segment to the second device.
