Specialist Encoding is Required to Transmit a Stream for Redistribution from a Server

Real-time Audience Engagement

Live web streaming is the broadcasting of a live video over the internet in real-time. There is no pre-recording or editing and the stream is sent continuously to the viewer without them having a prerequisite to download. 

To broadcast a live stream you will require a camera to capture the video and audio. This is as well as specialist software to encode the video data into a compressed format to allow for streaming. The encoded video is then transmitted to a streaming platforms server, from there it is re-distributed to the viewer.
