The encoded stream created by the software (3rd column of the table) reaches the WimTV Streaming Server using either RTMP (cases 1-2-3) or HLS (case 4).
The receiving devices can be mobile devices (smart phones and tablets), PC/laptops or smart TVs. The transport protocols are selected by the WimTV streaming server and can be HLS for mobile devices and smart TVs, and RTMP for PCs/laptops.
Streaming to a smart TV requires that a browser be available in the smart TV set.
