ABSTRACT:
A method of offering a video file to a video receiver that comprises determining a connection speed of a network connection to the video receiver. A progressive download, but not a non-progressive full download, of the video file is offered to the video receiver via the network connection when the connection speed is greater than a first threshold value. The non-progressive full download, but not the progressive download, of the video file is offered to the video receiver via the network connection when the connection speed is less than a second threshold value.
