IIS Smooth Streaming

The IIS Smooth Streaming format dynamically varies the bit rate of video streams to provide continuous playback at the highest quality that is supported by network bandwidth and client rendering power. Smooth Streaming in IIS 7 uses media files on the server recorded at various bit rates and distributes them in small fragments on the wire according to bandwidth capacity.
