The media streaming server technology have been developed in the recent past using free software and open source approaches. But commercial approaches are preferred by certain multimedia big enterprises. These enterprises dominate the mobile media delivery business. For this reason we think it is interesting to discover the main characteristics of the principal commercial platforms to deliver mobile video streaming to mobile devices and its main key features: Media and delivery components. We will give our vision on: Real Networks’ Helix Media delivery components based on RTSP and Microsoft’s IIS Media Services based on HTTP. The aim of this book chapter is to provide detailed insight into these different streaming approaches and how these platforms and protocols aid in building flexible streaming applications for mobile devices. A comparison among these approaches is also provided and also we present the delivery of video streaming to Apple mobile devices in the two commercial approaches.

The increased adoption of smartphones, the access to mobile broadband networks and the availability of public Clouds allow new multimedia services, called Cloud Mobile Media Services. Under this new architecture the proliferation of live video streaming applications and the Quality of Experience (QoE) given by the final user are an issue, due to the higher and variable delay, as result of the virtualization methods used in the Clouds. Thus in this paradigm new challenges appear related to keep and estimate a good QoE in terms of a standarized subjective video quality called Mean Opinion Score (MOS). In this paper we analyze different approaches based on Factor Analysis techniques to estimate the subjective MOS both using Full Reference and Non Reference approaches. We compare the performance of the estimated MOS against publicly available video quality algorithms.

Video streaming application such as Youtube is one of the most popular mobile applications. To adjust the quality of video for available network bandwidth, a streaming server provides multiple representations of video of which bit rate has different bandwidth requirements. A streaming client utilizes an adaptive bit rate (ABR) scheme to select a proper representation that the network can support. However, in mobile environments, incorrect decisions of an ABR scheme often cause playback stalls that significantly degrade the quality of user experience, which can easily happen due to network dynamics. In this work, we propose a control theory (Linear Quadratic Optimization)-based ABR scheme to enhance the quality of experience in mobile video streaming. Our simulation study shows that our proposed ABR scheme successfully mitigates and shortens playback stalls while preserving the similar quality of streaming video compared to the state-of-the-art ABR schemes.

Streaming video is a process of transferring moving images or video over the internet in a compressed form to viewers so that it can be viewed in real time. Streaming video technology is becoming more powerful all the time and appreciable works have been done in this area. However, security and adaptation of video are still problems to be tackled in the area of video streaming. In this paper, a secured and adaptive HTTP video streaming system (SAHVISS) was designed. The system was implemented using PHP, HTML5, Angular JS, Java Script and SQL Server database. It was tested on different computers and mobile devices using various web browsers. SAHVISS consist of four components namely Video Source, Streaming Server, Distribution Server and Client. The Streaming Server is made up of two sub-components namely the media encoder and the streamer. The server requires a media encoder to converts raw (uncompressed) digital video to a compressed format while the streamer breaks the encoded media into segments and save them as file. The distribution server comprises of Content Delivery Network and the Web server which delivers media file and the index files to the client over Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP).  The performance of SAHVISS shows that it provides an efficient technique for solving the issues of adaptation and privacy/security of streaming video content. It is a robust, secured and an adaptive http video streaming system.
