AWS states an exact 11-nines durability figure. Decentralized networks prove durability differently, and don't all use one method. Here's how each actually works.

AIOZ Stream splits uploads into 50-200MB parts across three API calls. Here's the raw chunking loop, and what the docs don't say about resuming a failed one.

A bitrate ladder is the set of resolution and bitrate rungs you encode for ABR. Build one per title from trial encodes and a quality curve, not a fixed table.

Adaptive bitrate (ABR) streaming encodes video at several quality levels so the player can switch per segment. How ABR works, how players decide, and ladders.

W2E is a real, confirmed AIOZ Stream feature, but no payout rate, funding source, or trigger is published anywhere. Here is what is confirmed and what is not.

VMAF is a 0-100 score trained on viewer ratings that predicts how an encode looks next to its source. How it works, what a good score is, which model to use.

QoE (quality of experience) is how a video session feels to viewers: fast start, no stalls, steady picture. How QoE is measured and how AIOZ Stream tracks it.

On AIOZ Stream you top up a wallet with AIOZ tokens (0.01 AIOZ minimum), credit is set at the AIOZ/USDT rate at deposit, and usage is deducted from it hourly.

Glass-to-glass latency is the delay from camera lens to viewer screen. See the seven stages behind it, why the player buffer dominates, and how to measure it.

AIOZ Stream pricing: $0.02 per GB per month for storage, $0.02 per GB delivered, and $0.01 to $0.05 per minute to transcode, billed hourly from an AIOZ wallet.

Low-latency HLS (LL-HLS) cuts live HLS delay from 20+ seconds to about 2 to 5 using partial segments and blocking reloads. How it works and when to use it.

A complete guide to the AIOZ Stream video player: what it does out of the box, two different paths to customizing it, and what still requires the API.
