However, there is no straightforward solution how to encode the content in a scalable way while maximizing rate-distortion performance. In this paper we provide encoding guidelines for scalable video coding based on a survey of media streaming industry solutions and a comprehensive performance evaluation using four state of the art scalable video codecs with a focus on high-definition content (1080p).}, keywords = {scalable video coding; adaptation; high-definition video; encoding; adaptive media streaming; content-aware networking}, language = {EN}, location = {Split, Coratia}, pdf = {https://www.itec.aau.at/bib/files/SVC_guide_and_eval.pdf}, talkdate = {2013.07.10}, talktype = {registered} }
