This work examines how degradations in video quality shape viewers’ emotional responses using both subjective ratings and automatic facial expression analysis. Across controlled impairment levels, lower quality increased negative affect and reduced engagement, with facial action units aligning with self-reported valence and arousal trends. Results highlight the value of combined self-report and vision-based signals for continuous QoE monitoring.
