## Description

BFA Stream is a professional live streaming app designed for broadcasters, 
content creators, and field journalists who demand reliable, high-quality video 
delivery.

STREAMING PROTOCOLS
• SRT (Secure Reliable Transport) — Low-latency streaming to any SRT receiver
• RTMP / Enhanced RTMP — Stream to YouTube, Twitch, Facebook Live, and more
• UDP — Local network testing and development

VIDEO ENCODING
• Hardware-accelerated H.264 (AVC) and HEVC (H.265) encoding via VideoToolbox
• HEVC uses ~40% less bandwidth than H.264 at the same quality
• Enhanced RTMP support for HEVC streaming to YouTube and modern platforms
• Ten quality presets from 480p to 1080p at 30 or 60 fps, with H.264 and HEVC
  variants and recommended bitrates per preset
• Software encoder fallback when hardware acceleration isn't available for
  the chosen codec / resolution / frame rate combination
• External UVC camera support

PROFESSIONAL FEATURES
• Picture-in-Picture streaming — keep your stream live while you check
  messages, look up notes, or reference another app on the same device
• Background streaming — keeps streaming when the app is minimized
• Virtual PTZ — pan and tilt within a higher-resolution capture window
  for on-the-fly framing without moving the phone
• Front / rear camera switching with full manual controls (focus point,
  exposure, ISO, shutter, white balance, torch + level, autofocus,
  stabilization, video HDR)
• Auto-reconnection with configurable exponential backoff
• Low-power mode — dims screen during long streams to reduce heat
• Real-time streaming statistics overlay

PRO SUBSCRIPTION (OPTIONAL)
Upgrade to BFA Stream Pro for advanced features:
• BFA Bond Network Bonding — Simultaneously uses WiFi and Cellular
  connections for rock-solid streaming in the field. Includes adaptive
  bitrate (ABR) that automatically adjusts quality based on network
  conditions. Choose between Turbo mode (low-latency aggregation) and
  Stability mode (packet duplication for maximum resilience).
• Multi-phone bonding — Pair a second iPhone as a booster via QR code
  to add another uplink to your stream. Path-split statistics and fleet
  ABR keep both devices contributing in real time.
• BFA Bond Remote Control — Drive your phone from the BFA Bond
  dashboard: start/stop streaming, switch cameras, change encoder
  presets, adjust manual camera controls, and operate virtual PTZ —
  all without touching the device. Pair by scanning a QR code.
• BFA Studio Remote Control - Control your stream from BFA Studio
  hardware via QR-code pairing and WebSocket connection.

DESIGNED FOR PROFESSIONALS
• Bandwidth probing to determine optimal bitrate before going live
• Per-path network statistics and buffer monitoring
• File logging for troubleshooting and support
• Clean, professional dark interface optimized for field use
