Push connection from the smartphone app kukuluLIVE Encoder2,
All content is now re-encoded using a server-side encoder before being delivered.
The new method (MHT mode) has the following advantages.
- Even if the signal is lost and the push connection is cut off, the connection will not be immediately disconnected from the viewer's side, and playback will resume quickly when the signal is restored, improving the viewing experience especially when streaming in poor signal conditions.
-Since the stream is handled on the server side, there is less delay than with conventional methods.
In environments with poor reception, the buffer on the viewer's side increased, resulting in increased delays, but with the new method, viewers can watch with just a 1-2 second delay, just like the PC version.
- Screen streaming mode on iOS/iPadOS, which tends to cause stream instability due to OS issues, will now be able to stream/view more stably.
・KukuluLIVE Overlay can be used on smartphones as it is automatically synthesized on the server side.
On the other hand, once you have made a push connection from the smartphone app, you will not be able to connect directly until the timeout expires, even if you disconnect the push connection.
For example, if you download the smartphone app and want to connect from a PC while using the same streaming slot, you will need to wait for more than 5 minutes or connect using the new RTMP address below.
(It is faster to re-acquire a new streaming slot, so we recommend not reusing the same slot in a different environment.)
Connections in external RTMP distribution mode (such as GoPro) can be used as usual as long as you do not change the fixed connection destination for each broadcaster.
You can change to the new method if necessary.
Simply change the RTMP connection destination from "rtmp://rtmp.erinn.biz/live/" to "rtmp://rtmp.erinn.biz/mhtlive/".
