Description

Channel

Except for channels whose input type is FLV_PULL, all other channels allow only one input stream and can output streams of multiple bitrates only after transcoding.

Clients

Table 3 Client constraints

Item

Description

Encoding format

In iOS 16.0 or later, the maximum HE-AAC audio bitrate is 64 kbit/s. This constraint does not apply to AAC-LC.

Client

If the displayed segment duration of the source stream is different from the actual segment duration, the audio and video may be out of sync. To solve this potential issue, the client should support audio-to-video synchronization.
