What can I use HLS Ladder for?

Use HLS Ladder to deliver video on the web, iOS, and smart TVs where HLS is the standard. It fits streaming platforms, learning products, and any service that needs reliable adaptive playback from a single uploaded file.

How does HLS Ladder handle different connections?

HLS Ladder produces several renditions so the player can switch resolutions on the fly as bandwidth changes, avoiding buffering. On each::labs the ladder respects the source resolution and will not upscale, keeping streamed quality faithful to the original.
