Little bit details for this situation:
- At publisher point we streaming with 720p resolution
- On player side we need to view video with minimized lag (not bigger than 3 sec if its possible).
So if we setting up isRealTime=yes - video plays good for some time, but because of high resolution - not all video frames come to player in correct time and it start’s to play latecomers frames faster then it should.
In web flash players (like Adope Strobe media playback) for this situation exist next options for live video: you can set buffer size to zero - and player will just drop latecomers frames (so images on screen will jump from time to time). Or - you can set buffer just to 1-2 sec - so lag of video will be a little bigger, but video frames will play smoothly.
For us - second scenario is comfortable and we try to reproduce with IOS libraries, but, as Kirill mentioned earlier, where is no effect in combining isRealTime = YES and clientBufferMs = 1000
