Methods and systems for a content server (105) to select sets of video streams having different encoding parameters for transmitting the sets of video streams to a media device (120) are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a method for transmitting video streams for a media program from a server (105) to a media device (120) includes: selecting (205), by the server (105), first encoding parameters including a first bitrate for a first set of video streams for the media program based on a first estimated bandwidth capacity for a network (115) linking the server (105) and the media device (120), transmitting (210) the first set of video streams from the server (105) to the media device (120), determining (215), by the server (105), second encoding parameters including a second bitrate for a second set of video streams for the media program, and transmitting (220) the second set of video streams from the server (105) to the media device (120). |
