Standard Stream

This is the standard feed. The difference between the standard and the latency video is 20+ seconds.

supports low-latency streaming with sub-second delay using open standards and proprietary protocols. This page showscases a demo of sub-second delay streaming with one player showing the sub-second delay feed and the other showing the standard streaming player.

Sub-second delay streaming provides superior performance over standard streaming with a 20+ second difference. It is also faster than the latest low-latency CMAF standard by 4+ seconds.

Live streaming latency—the delay between capturing a video frame and displaying it—is critical for keeping content in sync with real‑time action. In sports, financial news, and auctions, excessive delay can spoil the experience, cause missed bids or trades, and reduce viewer excitement. Ultra‑low latency (often under one second, or at most a few seconds) ensures that audiences remain engaged and content stays timely.

Interactive streaming platforms—such as live gaming, chat‑enabled events, virtual auctions, and online classes—depend heavily on minimal delay. High latency disrupts conversational flow, hinders participation, and breaks immersion. Real‑time feedback, polling, Q&A, and synchronized gameplay all rely on latency in the sub‑second range to feel natural and responsive.
