RTMP’s guaranteed transport can actually destroy a real-time stream.
In this video, we break down why the professional broadcasting world (including ESPN and CNN) is moving away from Adobe’s RTMP protocol in favor of the modern, open-source SRT (Secure Reliable Transport). Alex and Brian from Speedify explore the fundamental technical differences of TCP vs. UDP and how SRT’s built-in jitter buffer and the “3-4x” latency rule can eliminate glitches and lag in your broadcasts and live streams.
