Haivision Makito rtp-live-lowlatency

Hi,

I’m using the H264 Hardware encoder Makito from Haivision with Wowza Mediaserver 2.4 as described in this Tutorial: How to publish and play a live stream (MPEG-TS based encoder)

I used the first Instructions for FlashPlayer only and tested it with the Sample Client.

=> something like 3 sec. latency with 352x288i, 1000kbps, 150 GOP.

Now I replaced the stream type with rtp-live-lowlatency, but nothing changed… same 3 sec. latency on the test Client.

What did I do wrong? The Stream from the Makito plays with 100ms latency in VLC Player with buffer set to 0s.

Take a look at this guide:

High FPS (24 -30) is key in h.264 video to fast startup in Flash players.
