Avalon uses adaptive bitrate streaming to offer an 'auto' quality level during playback. Adaptive streaming works by monitoring network bandwidth and adjusting playback quality automatically. This results in minimal buffering time (i.e. waiting for a video to partially download before playing) and consistent playback for both high- and low-quality connections.

The adaptive streaming option can be viewed using the playback quality selector, and can be seen alongside the other quality options that correspond to each streaming derivative.
