Live-streaming
You can stream a meeting to a streaming server, using the Real-Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP)
open standard. RTMP reduces the latency and is suitable for streaming live sessions.
In a live-streaming session, which is often referred to as a webcast, the endpoint sends the local
audio/video/presentation to a streaming server. When the endpoint is in a call, it also sends the
remote audio/video/presentation to the streaming server.
Before you start live-streaming, you must open an account on a streaming platform. Alternatively,
you can set up your own streaming service. The platform enables you to retrieve the RTMP server
URL and your personal streaming key.
Some well-known live-streaming platforms include:
•
https://www.facebook.com/
• https://www.periscope.tv/
• https://www.youtube.com/
