Streaming Video Technology Alliance

Streaming Video Technology Alliance is the International Technical Association which provides a forum for companies around the world in the streaming video industry to collaborate on improving streaming video interoperability.

Secure Reliable Transport (SRT)

Secure Reliable Transport is an open-source video streaming protocol and technology used to transmit high-quality video and audio streams over unreliable or unpredictable networks, such as the public Internet. SRT was developed by Haivision, and it has gained widespread adoption in the broadcast and streaming industries due to its focus

Presentation Timestamp (PTS)

Presentation Timestamp (PTS) is a crucial concept used to ensure the proper synchronization and presentation timing of media segments within an HLS stream. PTS helps maintain the correct order and timing of audio and video components during playback.

Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG)

Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) is a working group of experts that develops standards for audio and video compression and transmission.

Low-latency HTTP Live Streaming (LL-HLS)

Low-latency HTTP Live Streaming (LL-HLS) is an extension of the HLS protocol designed to minimize latency in video streaming. While both LL-HLS and HLS are based on similar principles and share many features, the key difference lies in their focus on reducing latency.

Low-Latency Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (LL-DASH)

Low-Latency Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (LL-DASH) is an extension of the MPEG-DASH protocol designed to minimize latency in video streaming. While both LL-DASH and DASH are based on similar principles and share many features, the key difference lies in their focus on reducing latency.

High Efficiency Streaming Protocol (HESP)

High Efficiency Streaming Protocol (HESP) is an adaptive HTTP-based video streaming protocol with a particular focus on low end-to-end latency and fast channel-change.

Time To First Byte

Time to First Byte (TTFB) refers to the time between the browser requesting a resource (i.e., a webpage, a video manifest, a video segment) and when it receives the first byte of information from the server. This time includes DNS lookup and establishing the connection using a TCP handshake and TLS handshake if the request is made
