The main challenge of multimedia applications is how to transmission the Ultra-High Definition (UHD) video streaming in real time over the internet. The real time video streaming suffer from difficulties to be flexible and efficiency cause the wide variation of the available internet bandwidth. To avoid the problems that introduces with internet, in this work the HEVC with required video network adaptive streaming are proposed and tested using different six levels of three UHD video (4K, FHD, 720p, 4CIF, CIF and QCIF). From different experiments that applied find the optimal configuration of H.265 encoding features for six levels to obtain the required PSNR with range (32-38 dB). The important part in this project is a controller that worked incorporate with the encoder (H.265) to obtain the video streaming adaptation on the available bandwidth of the channel. The controller continuously reads the status of channel buffer, then choosing the proper level of video to be transmitted over the channel. The work architecture is content two parts: First, the H.265 codec that apply on the three raw videos with optimal parameters configuration to compress them and get videos with lower bit rate and acceptable quality. Second, the compressed videos, based to controller.....
