Broadcasters serving global audiences have trusted Livepush ABR to keep streams watchable on every connection, from stadium Wi-Fi to rural 4G.
A single-quality stream forces one choice on every viewer: if it is 1080p, the viewer on hotel Wi-Fi buffers; if it is 480p, the viewer on fiber wonders why your production looks soft. Adaptive bitrate removes the choice by serving all quality levels at once.
With ABR on, Livepush generates 360p, 480p, 720p, and 1080p renditions of your stream in the cloud. Each viewer's player continuously measures its own bandwidth and plays the highest rendition it can sustain, switching seamlessly mid-stream as conditions change.
ABR lives in the Web Player settings of every stream, right beside auto play, live rewind, and the viewers counter. Flip it on and the next segments already carry four renditions. No encoder changes, no restream, no configuration files.
The player picks per viewer, not per stream. Your fiber viewers hold 1080p, the commuter on 4G rides 480p through the tunnel and climbs back up after, and the weakest connection still gets a stable 360p instead of a spinner.
ABR is not locked to the Livepush player. With the toggle on, your direct .m3u8 link lists all four renditions, so hls.js, Video.js, AVPlayer, ExoPlayer, and Smart TV apps all adapt exactly the same way, wherever you embed the stream.
Traditionally, ABR meant encoding a ladder of qualities yourself and pushing them all upstream. Livepush does the ladder in the cloud: you send your usual single stream and the renditions are cut server-side, before CDN delivery.
