On the video encoder, you also need to setIDR/Keyframe
to a 2-second interval.
Avoid setting IDR/Keyframe
to values higher than 5 seconds. Not only will the stream-start latency be higher than when using 1 or 2 seconds, but we will be unable to guarantee that every segment generated for playback will begin with an IDR/keyframe. Segments not beginning with an IDR/keyframe may result in decode errors or visual distortions when viewers start playback or change renditions.
Avoid speed slow-down and variation
Get a wired connection
Use up-to-date software and hardware
