HLS (HTTP Live Streaming)

HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) is a technology developed by Apple that allows you to stream video and audio over the internet in real-time. It breaks the media content into small segments, which are delivered to your device using standard web protocols. This enables smooth playback, as the streams adapt to your internet speed, automatically switching to lower or higher quality as needed. HLS is widely used for live broadcasts and video-on-demand services, ensuring a reliable viewing experience on various devices, including smartphones, tablets, and smart TVs.
