Abstract:
Disclosed are various embodiments for facilitating uninterrupted playback of video streams using lower quality cached files. A video file corresponding to an entirety of a video content feature encoded at a first quality may be obtained from another client on a local network. A video stream corresponding to the video content feature encoded at a second quality higher than the first quality is then obtained. The video stream is rendered for playback on a display. In response to detecting an unavailability of the video stream at a particular time in the video content feature, the video file is rendered for playback on the display in place of the video stream and commences at the particular time in the video content feature. The video file may then be sent to yet another client on the local network.

Claim (Index 1):
A method, comprising:\n obtaining, by a first client computing device, a video file corresponding to a video content feature, the video file being encoded using a first bitrate; receiving, by the first client computing device, a user directive to play the video feature after the video file is received; obtaining, by the first client computing device, a video stream corresponding to the video feature in response to the user directive, the video stream being encoded at a second bitrate that is greater than the first bitrate; determining, by the first client computing device, whether the video stream is available; rendering for display, by the first client computing device, the video stream when the video stream is available or the video file when the video stream is not available; and sending, by the first client computing device, the video file to a second client computing device via a local network.
