WebRTC

Stream with high quality & low latency directly from your browser (Model Web Broadcaster) without any additional software.

  • Latency is less than 1 second for both desktop and mobile viewers when using the WebRTC player.
  • A hard-wired Ethernet connection (not WiFi) is strongly recommended.

External Broadcaster

External RTMP Broadcasters provide real-time video mixing tools, transitions, overlays, effects, audio tools, and more.

  • Highest video quality.
  • RTMP is the most widely used protocol for streaming live video from the broadcaster to the server.
  • You are able to seamlessly stream in Free Chat and Private/Group/Club shows on MyFreeCams using an RTMP External Broadcaster without having to stop broadcasting when switching between show types.
  • This broadcasting method is recommended for models on WiFi or with a sub optimal Internet connection (e.g. when traveling).
  • If you had good results with Flash, but not with WebRTC, this broadcasting option will be the optimal choice.
  • A hard-wired Ethernet connection is recommended for the best results.
