| ## How does streaming work? | |||
|
|
|||
| Lets start off by talking about how live streaming works. As a disclaimer, I’m going to be explaining HLS. HLS is a very common live streaming protocol, which allows for high quality and adaptive bitrate, at scale, on publicly available content delivery networks. Is HLS the best protocol? No, it has issues like very high latency, often around 15 seconds, and that it is controlled by Apple. However, it is common, simple to understand, there are many tools for it, and with the right approach can work pretty much everywhere. There are many ways to implement HLS, and I’m going to describe a very basic one. I can’t cover every rule of HLS here, so if you want to know more check out the HLS spec on Apple’s developer website. I’ll cover things like live and ABR, but I will skip things like DVR, or going live to VOD, etc. If want to know more about the lower level details of how video works, check out [this link](https://developer.apple.com/streaming/) | |||

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Pretty sure the only change I made here was the period at the end. The diff makes that very obvious...
