Methods and apparatuses to manage network resources across a group of playback devices that share the same resources to control video quality across the group of playback devices are provided. A central controller collects information about a plurality of playback devices wherein the playback devices share a network resource. The central controller also collects information regarding the network resource. The central controller allocates the network resource to deliver one or more requested video segments to one or more playback devices based on the information collected from the plurality of playback devices and the information collected regarding the network resource. By providing a central controller that is aware of the available network resources and the needs of the playback devices, the network resource can be managed in a way that improves the quality of experience for end users across all the playback devices while maximizing the efficiency of the network resources.

Systems and methods for automatically analyzing spectral power measurements to identify abnormalities. The systems and methods may receive measurements comprising RF power measured over a contiguous range of frequencies, where at least a first portion of the contiguous range is used to transmit signals and at least a second portion of the contiguous range is unused. Respective boundaries of the unused portions may be identified and infilled to provide modified measurements. The modified measurements may be automatically analyzed to identify the abnormalities.

A system and method for transcoding data. The system includes an adaptive transcoder that transcodes data to produce transcoded data having a first data rate, and transmits the transcoded data to a client device. The adaptive transcoder receives a quality signal. The adaptive transcoder transcodes the data at a second data rate in response to the adaptive transcoder determining that the quality signal indicates that the first data rate is deficient based on at least one of processing capabilities of the client device and network connection capabilities between the adaptive transcoder and the client device.
