Buffer Rage
a state of uncontrollable fury or violent
anger induced by delayed or interrupted
streaming video content
http://www.ineoquest.com/press-releases/new-research-reveals-buffer-rage-as-techs-newest-epidemic

Video Startup Delay
After 2 seconds,
every additional
second corresponds
to 5.8% increase in
abandonment

What Leads to Startup Delay?

Video Streaming
Manifest File:
List of Available
Streams
Player selects
8.5 MBPS stream Stream Manifest:
List of Video Segments
Buffer takes a long
time to fill
Video Does Not Play
Player immediately changes the
stream choice to 600KBPS

Video Streaming: Test on Fast Wi-Fi

#EXTM3U#
Example Manifest file:
8.5 MBPS is HIGH throughput for initial streaming
Best Practice: Pick middle throughput to balance startup time and quality

As long as Video download is faster than Playback….
What Leads to Stalls?

What Leads to Stalls?
Video Download
slower than playback,
so the video stalls
Buffer is filling, but
video has not resumed

Balancing the Network with Playback
Player uses available streams to balance download with playback

Video Streaming
#EXTM3U#

Video Streaming
Large jumps in
throughput
can lead to
streaming
issues

Video Streaming
Large throughput gaps can lead to
many stream changes – which can be
visible to user
