abstract = {Recent advances in video coding technology like the scalable extension of the MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 video coding standard pave the way for computationally cheap adaptation of video content. In this paper we present our work on a lightweight RTSP/RTP proxy that enables in-network stream processing. Based on an off-the-shelf wireless router that runs a Linux-based firmware we demonstrate that the video adaptation can be performed on-the-fly directly on a network device. The paper covers design and implementation details of the proxy as well as a discussion about the actual adaptation of the SVC stream. Based on experimental evaluations we show that our approach can handle a reasonable number of concurrent sessions for a typical home deployment scenario. Furthermore, the paper covers possible applications in which adaptation on the network device can be beneficial.},
