| 发明名称 | Live television playback optimizations | ||
| 摘要 | In embodiments of live television playback optimizations, streaming video content is received for distribution to a client device that is implemented to playback a video content stream for display. The video content stream is associated with a content manifest file that identifies video segments of the video content stream. An input can be received from the client device to switch from the video content stream to a new video content stream, and video segments of the new video content stream are buffered. A new content manifest file that correlates to the buffered video segments of the new video content stream is generated. The new content manifest file can then be published to the client device to indicate that a minimum of buffered video segments have been buffered for distribution to the client device before the minimum of buffered video segments have been buffered. | ||

| 主权项 | 1. A method comprising: receiving streaming video content for distribution to a client device that is configured to playback a first video content stream for display, the first video content stream associated with a content manifest file that identifies video segments of the first video content stream, wherein the streaming video content is received as live television content; receiving a user input from the client device to switch from the first video content stream to a second video content stream; tuning to discontinue transcoding the first video content stream and begin transcoding the second video content stream for distribution to the client device; buffering video segments of the second video content stream; generating a new content manifest file that correlates to the buffered video segments of the second video content stream; and publishing, by a processor, the new content manifest file to the client device to indicate that at least a minimum of the buffered video segments have been buffered for distribution to the client device before the minimum of the buffered video segments have actually been buffered. | ||
