Abstract
Video data transmission with prioritized frame sequences is disclosed for faster processing and play of a segment of a content item. High and low priority video frame transmission sequences are determined. Depending on an indication of the time remaining until play of the video segment, when sufficient time remains for reception of only the high priority frames, for example, I-frames and perhaps some P-frames, then only those are transmitted. These may be played at a lower frame rate before continuing with a subsequent video segment. In response to determining that, before start of play of the segment, sufficient time remains for reception of additional frames, for example, some B-frames, the lower priority frames may be transmitted. In this case, the segment may be played at a higher frame rate. Throughput may be determined according to an adaptive bitrate (ABR) implementation.
