Abstract

A method for reducing artifacts in streaming video implemented by a computing device involves determining whether a video quality assessment score for a current segment of a channel of a video stream with a first resolution and a first bit rate meets a quality threshold, replacing the current segment with a replacement segment with a lower resolution than the first resolution, in response to the current segment failing to meet the quality threshold, and publishing the replacement segment at the first bit rate as part of the video stream.
