Claim 13:
14. The method of claim 6, wherein the encoding the input video into the plurality of output encodings using the at least one different setting determined from the respective quality scores estimated for the plurality of output encodings further comprises:
determining two superior resolution and quality level setting combinations for each member of the set of encoded video streams for ABR delivery, wherein the determining is based at least in part on estimated quality scores and estimated bit-rates for different potential resolution and quality level setting combinations of the output encodings; and
encoding, for each member of the set of encoded video streams for ABR delivery, the input video into two output encodings with the respective two different resolution and quality level setting combinations;
wherein the selecting the one or more output encodings from the plurality of output encodings to include in the set of encoded video streams for ABR delivery further comprises:
selecting, for each member of the set of encoded video streams for ABR delivery, one of the two output encodings with the respective two different resolution and quality level setting combinations to use in the set of encoded video streams for ABR delivery, based at least in part on a quality score of the two output encodings and a determined bit-rate of the two output encodings.
