Live encoding causes a lot of debate in the streaming and broadcast communities, and the decisions we make about how it’s done not only affect the quality of the stream, but the budget of the production. Here at LiveX, we created a mix of scientific and real-life testing that will allow you to make your own judgments before hearing our opinion. The goal is not to crown a winner, but give you one more piece of information when choosing an encoder.
We developed a test focusing on the end-viewer experience for a common video stream rather than transport streams. Our Encoder Shootout series is designed to allow producers to make their own judgments before hearing our opinion.
For our latest test, we take a look at the quality of H264 streaming between vMix and the ATEM Mini Pro.
