Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2020259911A1] The invention relates to a method for managing the adaptive, progressive downloading (HAS) of digital content (C1) which is broadcast in real time within a multimedia stream player terminal (9), comprising: - obtaining a digital content description file (C1) comprising a list of time segments of the content (C1) to be downloaded which are each associated with a plurality of encoding rates for the content (C1), - establishing an encoding rate for the time segments to be downloaded in order to reproduce the content (C1) in real time as a function of a resource constraint of the terminal (9). According to the invention, if the encoding rate established is less than a maximum encoding rate set out in the description file, the method selects an option: - for downloading the time segments at the established encoding rate and reproducing the content (C1) in real time; or - downloading the time segments at an encoding rate greater than the established encoding rate and reproducing the content (C1) offline.
