About our PoPs
Chaturbate has a robust network of Points of Presence (PoP) worldwide for both video ingestion and serving, continuously expanding to new locations. This infrastructure ensures optimal video performance and resilience against failures, regardless of your location.
When you visit the site, you are automatically directed to the best video server based on your location and current server load. For broadcasters using an external encoder, we leverage an additional layer of over 150 PoPs to guarantee the best upload experience.
For a precise measurement of your connection performance to our servers, you can run a speed test directly from most of our PoPs using the dedicated page. This will provide a more accurate indication of your performance compared to generic speed tests. When broadcasting, you should always use our global load-balanced URL unless you get a better upload to a specific PoP.
RTMP URLs
These URLs can be directly entered into an external encoder to stream to a specific PoP, however, we only recommend doing this if the default global URL is not performing suitably. If a PoP is down for maintenance, the request will be automatically routed to the next closest.
