Is it possible to keep the Livestream in the background with Android OS

Hello,

I’m building the Livestream app on Android OS with your api.video service, and I have a question below:

Is it possible to keep the Livestream running in the background ?

Regards,
Dai

Hi Dai,

From the api.video perspective - as long as video data is streamed to our server - the stream will stay running.

I believe the issue is the streaming library that you are using in your Android app. Does that library support streaming in the background? Is there specific development work that needs to be done in the app to support streaming in the background?

Which Library are you using to stream video from your Android app?
