Abstract
A computer-implemented method for conserving resources on constrained devices may include (i) identifying a media stream on a resource-constrained device, (ii) detecting that a utilization, at least in part by the media stream, of a hardware resource on the resource-constrained device meets a predetermined threshold for hardware resource strain, and (iii) in response to detecting that the utilization meets the predetermined threshold for hardware resource strain, reducing the utilization of the hardware resource by the media stream by downgrading a codec used by the resource-constrained device to process the media stream. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
