Abstract

See full text

A system and method to rapidly switch from a primary content stream to a secondary content stream with minimal delay is provided. In operation, there will often be unused antenna elements. These unused antenna elements will be assigned to capture secondary content that users are most likely to request when changing from their primary content stream to another content stream. Thus, secondary content streams are predicatively captured in preparation of a user requesting a new content stream. The content is stored in a short term buffer is continually aged until a user requests the secondary content. Once requested, the content stream is immediately available to the user requesting the content stream. Also disclosed is a system for prioritized transcoding. Real-time requests for content transmissions are given access to transcode resources whereas requests to record content transmissions are temporary stored for off-peak transcoding.
