An apparatus comprising:
a plurality of servers (402) configured to run one or more twitch video games or applications to produce a plurality of streams of uncompressed streaming interactive video; and
a compression unit (404) that compresses one or more of the streams of uncompressed streaming interactive video produced by the servers into a new stream of compressed streaming interactive video, the compression unit outputting the new stream of compressed streaming interactive video for transmission in packetized form through a network connection to a plurality of client devices (415) associated with a corresponding plurality of users, at least one user providing control input to at least one of the servers, the at least one user being geographically remote from a premises where at least one of the servers is located;
wherein the new stream of compressed streaming interactive video is compressed with a worst-case, round-trip latency of 90 milliseconds, from a user control input to display of a response to the user control input on a client device of a user, over a transmission distance of up to 2414 kilometers. |
