Claim 12:
13. A non-transitory recording medium, readable by a device for managing transmission of a digital content, composed of a plurality of data packets, to a mobile terminal, on which is recorded a computer program comprising code instructions intended for implementation of a method when said computer program is executed by the processing means of a device for managing transmission of a digital content, the method comprising:
obtaining, by a management device, from a node for applying quality of service rules in a communication network, information about an available bandwidth on at least one network link set up between the mobile terminal and a network access gateway for a communication network, said network access gateway allowing interaction between said communication network and an external packet network, wherein said node for applying quality of service rules is distinct from said management device;
selecting, by said management device, on the basis of said information about the available bandwidth on said at least one network link set up between the mobile terminal and the network access gateway, an encoding bit rate to be used for at least one of said data packets; and
sending, by said management device, to a device intended to provide the digital content, a message indicating the selected encoding bit rate, so as to instruct said device intended to provide the digital content to transmit to the mobile terminal at least one of said data packets, encoded using the selected encoding bit rate, on one of said at least one network link.
