Abstract

A client-side FEC selection system involves pre-generating FEC data for a plurality of media segment streams based on a number of FEC configuration settings at a server. Metadata relative to the FEC data may be provided to a client device via appropriate manifest files or other mechanisms, whereupon the client device is operative to select and request a suitable FEC data fragment responsive to monitoring various network characteristics.
