Introduction
Microsoft Teams town halls and live events will soon support Secure Reliable Transport (SRT), a secure and resilient video streaming protocol designed to deliver high‑quality, low‑latency video over the public internet. SRT will be available alongside Real‑Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP), the existing inbound streaming protocol commonly used with external encoders. Adding SRT provides event organizers with improved reliability and flexibility, including support for backup streams with automatic failover, to help ensure smoother delivery for high‑visibility broadcast events without increasing setup complexity.
