I don’t like RT[M|S]P, but I have not seen an acceptable alternative for realtime streaming.
The main reason I don’t like RTMP, is because it isn’t supported at the OS level in Apple systems (the platform I program for).
HLS doesn’t come close to RTMP. It’s designed for movie streaming, and doesn’t support realtime streaming. I write video surveillance software, and the HLS lag is unacceptable.
