Abstract

In some embodiments, during playback of a video, using a parameter value of an adaptive bitrate algorithm to analyze playback of the video. The adaptive bitrate algorithm uses the parameter value to select a profile from a plurality of profiles to use to request segments of the video. A method selects a scenario in a plurality of scenarios when a playback condition meets a characteristic value of the scenario. The plurality of scenarios are associated with a different characteristic value. The method adjusts the parameter value of the adaptive bitrate algorithm based on the scenario to generate an adjusted parameter value. The plurality of scenarios have at least one different parameter value. The adjusted parameter value of the adaptive bitrate algorithm is used to analyze the playback of the video.
