Moodle and Streaming
Video materials have become mainstream in educational content, with MP4 dominating the main layout of course homepages. The specifications of video materials (fps, bit rate), compression ratios, and the physical distance between viewers and servers (e.g., Moodle, Canvas) may lead to issues such as latency and jitter when multiple users watch simultaneously online. To address these challenges, we introduce Yakitory streaming server to assist businesses and schools.
