While HTTP adaptive streaming (HAS) technology has been very successful, it also generally introduces a significant amount of live delay as experienced by the end viewer. Multiple elements in the video preparation and delivery chain contribute to live delay, and many of these elements are unique to HAS systems versus traditional streaming systems such as RTSP and RTMP. This paper describes how improvements both in the structure of the media, the delivery workflow, and the media player can be combined to produce a system that compares well with broadcast. The paper concludes with a preview of advances in delivery technology (such as HTTP2) that will improve the experience even more in the near future.
