Integrating AI workflows with media streaming has never been easier! With my newly developed Python plugin for Ant Media Server, you can effortlessly integrate your Python-based AI models, whether for real-time object detection, speech recognition, or any other AI-driven media processing task. This blog post will guide you through setting Read more…
Our guest is Vitor Silva, a Developer at Ubistart, and he will talk about their journey to build a React Native WebRTC application using rn-antmedia. What type of project generated the need to create lib rn-antmedia? A project with a frontend dashboard and mobile application for users, this project is Read more…
Do you want to set up IP camera streaming or simply learn how it works? In this article, I will explain what IP cameras are, how they work, and who usually uses them. You will also get familiar with the most popular video protocols that are being used for security Read more…
Enabling SSL on Ant Media Server is essential for securing communications and supporting modern browser requirements. While SSL is not mandatory for all streaming use cases, it is required for accessing microphones and cameras, and for running WebRTC and WebSocket-based applications in browsers such as Google Chrome. Ant Media Server Read more…
HTML5 live streaming solutions have become more popular lately. One of them is the HLS streaming protocol. There are some reasons why this is so popular, the most important of which is that RTMP lost its support by the end of 2020. In 2017, Adobe announced that it will no Read more…
Unity is widely used for building interactive, real-time applications across multiple platforms, including desktop, mobile, and XR environments. As demand for ultra-low-latency streaming grows—especially for gaming, AR/VR, and real-time collaboration—WebRTC has become a natural choice for streaming inside Unity applications. Ant Media Server provides native WebRTC support, making it possible Read more…
RTSP — Real-Time Streaming Protocol — is a network control protocol designed to establish and manage media sessions between endpoints. Standardized by the IETF as RFC 2326 in 1998, RTSP operates at the application layer and acts as a “network remote control” for multimedia servers: it controls stream delivery without Read more…
WebRTC scalability is often misunderstood because the protocol itself is peer-to-peer by design. In a basic mesh setup, each participant connects directly to every other participant, which causes bandwidth and CPU usage to grow exponentially as users join. This is why native peer-to-peer architectures typically struggle beyond about 10–12 participants Read more…
Who wouldn’t want to stream high-quality media cheaper and more simply, with low latency? CMAF makes this scenario, which is everyone’s dream, possible. It is the result of a concerted effort by tech giants to increase efficiency and reduce latency. The need for low-latency solutions started to increase with Adobe’s abandonment of support Read more…
