Abstract
In recent year’s multimedia services like Video-on-Demand (VoD) and mobile video streaming, videos for e-learning, video conferencing are growing predominantly, and the user’s expectations towards the quality video are increasing as the technology is developing. There are different video streaming protocols are used for streaming videos from servers to the client. Recently, Adobe Systems developed Real Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP) (proprietary) for streaming audio, video and data over the Internet between a Flash player and a Media Server. On the other hand, Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is a well-known and efficient protocol; it has achieved the popularity in multimedia services like VoD. Hence, a qualitative research is to be performed on comparing the two Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) based protocols, under sustainable network conditions for tracing the QoE results from acquired User Ratings (UR). This thesis investigates the quality assets on network parameters over VoD streaming. The study
