This is referring to the technology we just released into BETA for premium subscribers, which delivers one of the lowest latencies for livestreaming (significantly better than YouTube’s latency).

Although quality != latency, so idk.

my company in a nutshell.

we made up a shitty name and a shittier AI logo for whats essentially an off the shelf white label sd-wan appliance.

I appreciate they know the value of their work and criticize companies for their ridiculous exploitation and underpayment of open source devs, as well as claiming open source libraries as their own work.

Does anyone not use ffmpeg at this point?
