What it does

Mux Video Live takes the pain out of live video encoding and streaming via a simple API. By the creators of Zencoder & Video.js. Build high-quality live streams into your application with just a few lines of code.

Create live video streams and make them play beautifully at scale on any device with our live streaming API and SDKs, powered by data-driven encoding decisions.

With clean documentation and straightforward onboarding, you don’t have to be a video expert to build live streaming into your web or native applications. Whether you're serving a few dozen streams or a few million, we grow with you. No max limits on live streams or viewers means we handle scaling so you don't have to. What took months now takes minutes. Let us do the technical heavy lifting and take weeks off your launch time. We use SRT with HEVC support and RTMP for accepting live broadcasts, and HLS for output streams. This gives your application the ability to stream from a mobile app, broadcast software, or hardware encoder and broadcast to any device. Let your users rebroadcast to a…from mux.com
