Systems and methods for encoding alternative streams of video for playback on playback devices having predetermined display aspect ratios and network connection maximum data rates

摘要: Systems and methods for adaptive bitrate streaming of alternative streams video encoded at resolution sample aspect ratio combinations maximum bitrates in accordance with embodiments the invention are disclosed. In one embodiment invention, a source encoder configured to encode stream as plurality playback on device includes processor receive multimedia content including data having primary resolution, ratio, frame rate video, where least selected have an that is same predetermined display bitrate.
