Playlist Switching Simulator

You can use this page to visualize the behavior of the playlist switcher under different network conditions. It can helpful to understand how tweaks to the switching logic will affect playback.

Timeline

Simulation results will show up here

Parameters

You can simulate more complex network conditions by changing the bandwidth during the run. Start a new time period and then define its starting time and link capacity.

If you've created a complex scenario you'd like to retry later, run the simulation and then save the URL of this page. All of the network conditions you specify are saved into the URL fragment after the results of a simulation run are displayed.
