Recommendations

The stream you are sending is relative to your Internet connection. Particularly the upload speed. The best the quality is, the best your upload speed needs to be fast and stable. See our recommendations regarding quality and upload speed.

Minimum Upload Speed connection

On the video encoder, you also need to setIDR/Keyframeto 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.
