    Did you set the buffertime to 0 ?

    September 8, 2009

    Not enough information to go on.

    What is the bitrate of the published stream (audio+video)?

    What is the buffer length set to on the subscribing client?

    What are you using to publish your stream (flashplayer, FMLE, third party encoder, etc)?

    How much bandwidth is available at the server, the publishing client, and the receiving client?

    What video codec are you using?

    FMS 3 (& 3.5 also ?) installs with configurations optimized for Max CPU  efficiency. Reducing/shutting-off FMS publisher queues using Application.xml  config should help in removing the delay that you  experienced.

    <Application>
    <StreamManager>
       <Live>
      <Queue enabled="true">
      </Queue>
       </Live>
    </StreamManager>
    </Application>


    Changing  default setting to <Queue enabled="false"> disables live publisher queues  & aggregate messages ad therefore "the delay".
