Transcoding in security camera applications

A base station comprising:

• a monitoring component configured to:
• determine first network parameters associated with a first network communicably coupling the base station to a video streaming server,
• wherein the base station is configured to receive a first video stream from the video streaming server;
• a transcoding component communicably coupled to the monitoring component and configured to:
• extract a feature vector from the first network parameters and second network parameters associated with a second network communicably coupling the base station to an extended-reality (XR) device executing an XR application;
• and
• transcode the first video stream based on the feature vector;
• and
• a transceiver communicably coupled to the transcoding component and configured to:
• receive, from the XR device, a request for access to the video streaming server using self-sovereign identity (SSI),
• wherein the request includes a single decentralized identifier stored in a digital wallet, and
• wherein the single decentralized identifier is verifiable using SSI;
• and
• send the transcoded first video stream to the XR device for combining the first video stream with a second video stream, produced by a camera of the XR device, into an XR video stream for display on an electronic display of the XR device by the XR application.

A non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium storing computer instructions, which when executed by one or more computer processors cause the one or more computer processors to:

• determine first network parameters associated with a first network communicably coupling a base station to a video streaming server,
• wherein the base station is configured to receive a first video stream from the video streaming server;
• extract a feature vector from the first network parameters and second network parameters associated with a second network communicably coupling the base station to an extended-reality (XR) device executing an XR application,
• transcode the first video stream based on the feature vector;
• receive, from the XR device, a request for access to the video streaming server using self-sovereign identity (SSI),
• wherein the request includes a single decentralized identifier stored in a digital wallet, and
• wherein the single decentralized identifier is verifiable using SSI;
• and
• send the transcoded first video stream to the XR device for combining the first video stream with a second video stream, produced by a camera of the XR device, into an XR video stream for display on an electronic display of the XR device by the XR application.
