A discontinued Adobe software used for live streaming via RTMP, allowing users to broadcast audio and video to streaming servers.

The Start of Authority (SOA) record is a DNS record that contains essential information about a domain, such as the primary nameserver, administrator email, and domain refresh intervals.

A process that increases the resolution of a video (e.g., from 720p to 1080p) using algorithms or AI to enhance quality while maintaining clarity.

To disable Cloudflare for a domain, you can either pause Cloudflare from the dashboard, change proxy settings (orange cloud to gray) in DNS settings, or update your domain’s nameservers to remove Cloudflare.

VLC Media Player can be used to stream media over a network using protocols like RTSP, HTTP, RTP, or UDP, making it a versatile tool for both local and internet-based streaming.

A Service (SRV) record in DNS specifies the location (hostname and port number) of servers for specific services, such as VoIP or instant messaging.

The recommended bitrate for 720p resolution at 60 frames per second (FPS) varies based on encoding settings: Standard quality: 3,500–5,000 Kbps High quality: 5,000–7,500 Kbps The bitrate recommendation depends on the use case, but for most streaming platforms, 3,500–7,500 Kbps is ideal to maintain smooth playback and image quality.

To remove Cloudflare from a website, update the DNS settings at your domain registrar to point directly to your hosting provider, disable Cloudflare services, and update nameservers.

An HTTP response header used for web caching that helps determine whether a file has changed since the last request, reducing redundant data transfers and improving load times.
