The streaming platform supports receiving streams from your server (PULL) or from a dedicated publishing point (PUSH) using the following protocols:
-SRT
-RTMP
Note! To get a PUSH point for the SRT protocol, write to us in the chat or at support@gcore.com.
The stream is transcoded to get streams of lower quality and sent with adaptive streaming via CDN in HLS / MPEG-DASH (CMAF) formats.
