Adaptive Device Streaming: Control Quality Per Device

Smarter Streaming Outcomes Across Devices

Reduce Delivery Costs

Avoid over-serving high-resolution streams on mobile devices and reduce unnecessary bandwidth costs across high-volume OTT traffic.

Strengthen Reach Across Mobile-First Markets

Improve Mobile Viewing Consistency

Create a more stable mobile video streaming experience for audiences on smaller screens and varying network conditions.

Protect Premium Quality on Bigger Screens

Preserve the full streaming experience for TVs and larger displays where higher resolutions deliver the most visual value.

Control Streaming Quality Seamlessly

Set It Once. Let the Profile Handle the Rest.

Enable Device-Based Streaming Controls inside your encoding profile and every new video using that profile automatically follows the rule, helping you manage mobile video resolution control without per-video configuration or extra encoding workflows.

Cap Resolution. Not the Experience.

Choose the maximum resolution mobile viewers can access, such as 720p, based on the output renditions selected in your encoding profile. Higher renditions stay unavailable for mobile playback, helping you avoid unnecessary high-resolution delivery on smaller screens.

Keep Full Quality Where It Matters

Cap mobile playback without limiting the full streaming experience on TVs and larger screens. Mobile viewers receive the configured resolution range, while bigger screens can continue accessing higher-quality renditions from the same ABR ladder.
