This isn't as interesting as I hoped it would be from reading the title. It looks like the only technical aspect of this is caching the input file, which makes sense but isn't very exciting. Is there any work being done on sharing some of the encoding work between different resolutions of the same codec? I don't know a lot about video codecs but it seems like you might be able to encode the higher resolution video and save some of the intermediate data to use with the lower resolution video to at least provide hints.
