Quality Fall Back
Vudu has video quality fall back to make sure you can
experience the best possible video quality with your
home network bandwidth. Vudu has option to allow
you to downgrade video quality for free if the home
network suddenly suffers from heavy network traffic.
(i.e. you can rent HDX quality and can choose to
stream at lower quality such as HD or SD if network
bandwidth drops to make sure the viewing experience
is as smooth as possible.)
Auto detection and suggestion
If the network is suffering heavy traffic, and the
buffering (loading) messages have to show up 4
times, the software would suggest that you to down-
load the quality to ensure continuous viewing. You
have option to keep on trying the highest quality that
you have purchased.
It depends on the quality of purchased movie, and
Vudu’s availability to suggest the other option to
stream. (i.e. the movie was bought as HDX and Vudu
has other HD and SD quality then both lower quality
will be offered)

You may choose to view at lower quality of your
choice at beginning due to past experience or other
home device network demand.

ty based on: the purchased quality of the movie, and
the availability of other quality from Vudu service. (i.e.
a HDX movie would commonly see the offering of HD
