Question

Optimizing FMS for lowest latency possible

I'd like to use Flash Media Server for a 2-way one to one audio/video app, but latency is the most important issue. I'd like the stream to be as close to real time as possible. What settings can I tweak to help me do this? I've got a basic app setup right now and the lag seems to be about 1 second.

    For switching off server side publisher buffer disable Live queue in conf/Application.xml

    For switching off client side buffer in flash player use Netstream.setBufferTime(0);

    When you talk about latency, it always comes down to the networks involved. Outside of that, there is a notion of "stream buffering" which should be well documented (i don't have them in front of me or I would check). my guess is that there is a way to turn the buffering off so that it tries to run at "real time".

    How do you disable the buffer?
