Abstract: Embodiments provide techniques for optimizing ABR profiles for broadcast channels at a network gateway device. Embodiments include monitoring, at a network gateway device for a network, a plurality of client devices within the network to determine adaptive bitrate (ABR) streaming information for a first broadcast channel of a plurality of broadcast channels. One or more performance attributes of the network are determined. Embodiments include selecting one or more ABR profiles, of a plurality of ABR profiles for the first broadcast channel, based on the ABR streaming information and the one or more performance attributes of the network. An updated manifest file specifying the selected one or more ABR profiles for the first broadcast channel is generated, and the updated manifest file is transmitted to the plurality of client devices.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for optimizing an assignment of a set of available video encoders to a plurality of video channels. Embodiments determine an optimal assignment of the set of available video encoders to the plurality of video channels, comprising, for each of the plurality of video channels, by determining a respective number of video encoders to assign to the video channel, and determining a respective set of video streams to provide for the video channel, using the assigned video encoders. The video streams are generated for the plurality of video channels, using the assigned video encoders.
