# Streaming support Streaming is multimedia that is constantly received by, and presented to, an end-user while being delivered by a provider. Fluid Player supports MPEG-DASH and HLS streaming. These both work by splitting the content into segments. Segments contain video or audio content, and are selected based on the highest bit rate available. This is to ensure there are as few stalls and re-buffers as possible. More details on streaming can be found [here.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streaming_media#Protocols) *Last updated on 5/20/2020* --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
