Frame Rate Optimization for Ant Media Server: WebRTC & Ultra-Low Latency Streaming

Frame rate directly affects stream quality, latency, bandwidth, and viewer experience. This guide breaks down how to configure frame rates in Ant Media Server for real-world production use.

🔹 Key takeaways

30 fps → Best default for webinars, events, and presentations

15–20 fps → Optimal for mobile streaming (battery + bandwidth friendly)

60 fps → Ideal for gaming, sports, and fast-motion content

Balance frame rate, bitrate, and resolution—higher fps without enough bitrate hurts quality

Use adaptive bitrate + WebRTC degradation preferences for stable playback

📱 Includes mobile optimization, WebRTC-specific tuning, ABR ladders, monitoring tips, and troubleshooting for dropped frames and latency issues.

If you stream with Ant Media Server, this is your practical frame-rate playbook.
