Abstract:
A computer-implemented system and method for streaming video from a server to a client are described. For example, a method according to one embodiment comprises: receiving at the server a request for video content from the client; in response to the request, determining the hardware/software configuration of the client; generating and/or selecting a temporary decoder based on the hardware/software configuration of the client; transmitting the temporary decoder to the client, the client installing the temporary decoder; encoding and streaming the requested video content from the server to the client, the video content being encoded based on the capabilities of the temporary decoder, the video content being decoded by the temporary decoder and rendered on the client; detecting that the client has ended the session with the server; and in response to detecting that the client has ended the session, temporarily disabling and/or removing the temporary decoder from the client.

Claim (Index 1):
A method for streaming video from a server to a client, comprising:\n receiving at the server a request for video content from the client, wherein the video content changes interactively based on user input received at the server from the client; encoding video frames that define the requested video content as a series of sets of tiles, wherein an initial video frame is defined by a set of I-tiles, and wherein subsequent video frames are defined by sets of P-tiles; streaming the series of sets of tiles from the server to the client; receiving an acknowledgement at the server for each P-tile successfully received at the client; and in response to determining that an acknowledgement was not received at the server for a given P-tile, setting a next P-tile to depend from a last acknowledged P-tile prior in sequence to the given P-tile, such that the next P-tile is decoded at the client using a stored decoder state corresponding to the last acknowledged P-tile.
