Methods and systems for enabling client-controlled streaming of segmented content are described. In one example, the client-controlled streaming is on the basis of a manifest file, the manifest file including one or more segments identifiers and one or more associated segment locators, In one example, a method involves: requesting the delivery of at least one segment on the basis of a first segment identifier selected from the manifest file; on the basis of the first requested segment, selecting a second at least one segment identifier from the manifest file, the second segment identifier being associated with an expected future segment request; and pre-resolving a first segment locator associated with the selected second segment identifier for obtaining network information associated with the first segment locator.
