Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, from an uploading client system, a video; calculating an overall quality score for one or more encodings for the video, wherein the overall quality score of a respective encoding is based on a playback-quality score, the playback-quality score being based on a video quality or bit rate of the respective encoding; receiving, from a requesting client system, a request for the video and information associated with the request, wherein the information associated with the request comprises information about the requesting client system; determining, for the requesting client system, a first encoding based on the overall quality score of the encoding and the information associated with the request; and sending, to the requesting client system, the first encoding for display.
