Abstract

In this paper, we present a method to assist users in selecting quality parameters for streaming video. Constrained scaling, a method for calibrating users' subjective judgements to a naturalistic scale is introduced. An experiment in which participants judged the fluidity of sample videos across different frame rates demonstrates the effectiveness of constrained scaling.
