Summary

Mux has introduced new playback modifiers for video streaming infrastructure that allow users to manipulate manifests at playback time. These include min_resolution, which controls the minimum resolution of delivered content, and rendition_order, which determines the order in which renditions are exposed. By combining these modifiers with existing max_resolution functionality, users can tailor the streaming experience for different tiers of viewers. Mux Data is recommended to monitor playback experiences and run A/B tests when using these features.
