Netflix is working on a reformed approach of delivering its content, which is expected to be released in the next few months. The firm revealed its latest software called Dynamic Optimiser compression that it believed subscribers to save money while enhancing their viewing experience.

According to Mail Online, this new Netflix's Dynamic Optimiser compression system utilizes synthetic knowledge to deal with the complexity of the image being displayed. It will upgrade the entire video quality while also decreasing the rate of data utilized in accessing it.

This Dynamic Optimiser compression system then alters the densification fee it applies depending on what is happening on the screen. Like, for example, an action scene packed with explosions, bright colors or complex images would obtain slight compression compared to an interview on a plain background.

The Netflix's existing compression methods are mainly relying on bandwidth speeds. It means that when a streaming service finds out that subscribers are experiencing a slow connection, it will boost the compression as well. This condition is either caused by low-speed broadband at home or irregular mobile reception levels.

The software utilized in identifying this practice is known as codecs. The new Dynamic Optimiser codec will be launched "in a couple of months", Todd Yellin,
vice president of product innovation at Netflix said.

"Whatever the best picture we can give you with whatever your bit rate is, that's what we're going for. An HD picture for a lot less." Yellin told press at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona last Feb. 27, News.com.au reported.

Last Monday, Netflix head Reed Hastings also projected that mobile carriers will provide data plans soon delivering users with limitless video streaming. This is to match the increasing popularity of watching TV and movies on mobile devices. "Ten to twenty years from now all the video you view is going to be on the Internet," he said at the MWC 2017.
