        While it&apos;s natural to want to keep your latency as low as possible, you may experience
        reduced error tolerance and stability in some environments the lower you go.

        For interactive live streams you may want to experiment with a lower latency, for
        non-interactive broadcasts you may want to increase it.{' '}
