====== ffmpeg - Latency ======

===== Minimize live stream latency =====

<code bash>
ffmpeg -fflags nobuffer -flags low_delay -reorder_queue_size 0 -i <input> <output>
ffplay -i <input> -fflags nobuffer -flags low_delay -reorder_queue_size 0
</code>

<WRAP info>
**NOTE:**

  * **fflags nobuffer** reduces the latency introduced by optional buffering.
  * **-flags low_delay** forces low delay.
  * **-reorder_queue_size 0** sets the number of packets to buffer for handling of reordered packets to 0.
