Abstract
A video packaging and origination service can include one or more encoder components that receive content for encoding and transmitting to requesting entities. During the operation of the encoder components, individual encoders receive input signals for encoding and determine quality metric information related to the generation of an encoded segment. The encoder components exchange quality metric information and an encoder component is selected to transmit an encoded segment. The selection of an individual encoder component per segment can continue throughout the streaming process.
