INSERTION OF GRAPHIC OVERLAYS INTO A STREAM

Systems and methods of inserting overlays into a stream are disclosed. A media server may receive a stream. The media server may selectively add one or more images (e.g., graphics and/or text) to the stream prior to scaling the stream to produce one or more scaled streams. The media server may also selectively add one or more images to the scaled streams. The scaled streams may be encoded for adaptive streaming to a computing device.
