HLS

HTTP Live Streaming (HLS streaming), developed by Apple, was designed to replace the Flash player on iPhones. HLS is adaptive to network conditions, making it a favored protocol among streaming services. It automatically adjusts to different screen sizes and the bandwidth available on a user’s network, which enhances viewing experiences across various devices. Supported by HTML5 video players, HLS enables streaming at the optimal bitrate for a user's connection without interrupting playback. This feature is crucial for video content, as it allows seamless scaling of video quality. Table of Contents: What is HLS Streaming? How & Why Apple Developed HLS…
