For channels pushing RTMP output to third-party destinations — social platforms, partner CDNs, or your own infrastructure — delivery is now significantly more resilient. The platform automatically detects and recovers from destination drops, rate limits, and stalls, keeping your streams on air without manual intervention.

Automatic recovery from drops — If a destination disconnects or rate-limits the connection, delivery is retried automatically with smart backoff. Proactive health monitoring — A silently failing destination now triggers a channel health alert, so you know about delivery issues before viewers do. Isolated destination handling — Issues with one destination stay contained and won’t affect the rest of your channel’s delivery. Format normalization — Output is automatically adjusted to match each destination’s expected format and resolution. Smoother delivery — Tuning improvements reduce the chance of momentary stalls reaching viewers.

These improvements apply automatically to all channels with RTMP output configured — no opt-in required.
