US Patent 10531095 System and method for optimal variable bit rate packing

Systems and methods for optimal variable bit rate packing are disclosed. Some embodiments include encoding media at a plurality of bit rates to generate a corresponding plurality of encodings, where each of the plurality of encodings include a plurality of framesets, generating advance encoding data for each of the plurality of encodings, where each advance encoding data includes information related to a data size of the plurality of framesets of the corresponding encoding, transmitting the generated advance encoding data to a client, receiving a request from the client including a request for one or more framesets of a first encoding, and transmitting the requested one or more framesets of the first encoding to the client.
