The live monitoring system provides real-time monitoring for various live events. Real-time alerts are triggered when exceptions occur, such as frame rate and bitrate changes, audio and video synchronization issues, latency, and stuttering. This can help you ensure the continuity of various live events. This topic describes the features and scenarios of the live monitoring system.
