VIDEO STREAMING FOR BROADCASTERS

WHAT IS STREAMING VIDEO?

Streaming media is video, audio or text sent over the Internet and displayed by the viewer upon arrival. With streaming media, a web user does not have to wait to download a large file before seeing the video or hearing the sound. Instead, the media is sent in a continuous stream and is played as it arrives.
