Yes, when the real-time audio and video SDK enables bypass live broadcast, the domain name typically needs to be registered for use. Bypass live broadcast (also known as relay or relayed streaming) allows the SDK to forward the audio and video streams directly to a specified server or CDN endpoint without processing them on the platform's servers. In this case, the domain name serves as the destination for the streams, and it must be properly configured and registered to ensure the streams can be delivered correctly.
For example, if you are using the SDK to broadcast live events and want to bypass the platform's processing, you would need to set up a domain name (e.g., live.example.com) that points to your own server or CDN. The SDK will then send the streams to this domain name. To make this work, you need to register the domain name with a domain registrar and configure DNS records (such as CNAME or A records) to point to your server or CDN's IP address.
If you are using Tencent Cloud services, you can leverage Tencent Cloud Domain Name and Website (DNSPod) for domain registration and management, and Tencent Cloud Content Delivery Network (CDN) to ensure efficient stream delivery. Additionally, Tencent Cloud Live Video can be used for advanced live streaming scenarios if needed.
