When stream is started from ios mobile app using gocoder SDK and shown on android app using Gocoder SDK, stream video is coming as pixelated.

Appreciate you help.

I would try to change some of the settings as certain iOS and Android devices differ as far as what amount of data they can handle @mnt testing. You also need to make sure that HLS in enabled in the Android SDK app since that SDK primarily uses WOWZ.

_For mobile streaming, it’s best to encode streams using a low bitrate, frame rate, and low encoding complexity. A total bitrate of between 64Kbps and 250Kbps is best._

_Many mobile devices may not be able to handle a full 30 frames per second (fps). A frame rate between 15fps and 24fps may be best for mobile. It’s best to encode to a lower H.264 complexity. Most mobile devices only support H.264 Baseline profile._
