Abstract:
Disclosed herein system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method and/or computer program product embodiments, and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for using technology in innovative ways to automatically and intelligently predict performance of content delivery networks (CDNs) in a crowdsourced manner in order to deliver the highest resolution content possible with little or no buffering. In some embodiments, a media device downloads and displays primary content on a display device. The media device determines that secondary content should be stitched into the display of the primary content. Accordingly, the media device requests that a crowdsource server determine a bit-rate variant of the secondary content to download. The crowdsource server determines the bit-rate variant in a crowdsourced manner such that subsequent download of the identified bit-rate variant by the media device results in a zero buffer experience. The media device downloads the determined bit-rate variant of the secondary content, and stitches the downloaded bit-rate variant of the secondary content into the display of the primary content.

Claim (Index 18):
The media device of  claim 16 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:\n transmit a blacklist related query to the crowdsource server, wherein the query includes information identifying a type and capabilities of a combination of the media device, the display device and a network, wherein the crowdsource server accesses a blacklist corresponding to the combination, to determine whether the combination is capable of downloading and playing the secondary content, and wherein the secondary content is not played on the display device if the secondary content is on the blacklist.
