HTML5 SLDP Player


JavaScript player allows playing SLDP on any platform with MSE support like Win, Linux, Mac, Android and iPad.

Supported codecs include AVC/H.264, HEVC/H,265, VP8 and VP9 for video with AAC, MP3 and Opus audio. Visit each platform page for more details on protocol and codec support.


SLDP
Softvelum Low Delay Protocol is based on WebSockets with sub-second delay and ultra-low latency with codec-agnostic adaptive bitrate (ABR) streaming and CEA-608/708 closed captions support.

SLDP is codec-agnostic so the player can get the stream and play whatever the target platform supports.

This is a replacement for RTMP live playback now when Flash has been recently declined.

Visit SLDP page for more information, read FAQ, other articles like Opus audio-only for iPhone and more.

SRT
Secure Reliable Transport is based on UDP and it gives reliability and security for passing live streams over unreliable networks like mobile or long-distance delivery.

SRT playback in Larix Player for Android and iOS allows improving user experience of our customers.
Pull (Caller), Listen and Rendezvous modes are supported for playback.
HTML links with srt:// will be opened in Larix Player.

Synchronized playback

SLDP technology allows performing synchronized simultaneous playback on multiple browsers and devices. This is important for cases like these:

  • One big screen with audio on individual devices.
  • A second screen application.
  • Multiple screens with single source of sound.
  • Surveillance cameras shown on the same page.
This capability is supported in Nimble Streamer server, HTML5 SLDP Player, Larix Player for iOS and Android.
