description: Dolby.io (now branded as Dolby OptiView) is Dolby Laboratories' developer platform for
  media, streaming, communications, and advertising APIs. Originally launched as a hub for Dolby's
  audio and video processing services (Media APIs, Communications APIs), the platform has
  consolidated around three OptiView pillars — Real-time Streaming (formerly Millicast), Live
  Streaming (formerly THEOlive), and Playback (formerly THEOplayer) — with an Advertising pillar
  built on Server-Guided Ad Insertion. The platform powers live sports streaming for the NFL,
  NASCAR, Paddy Power, and other large broadcasters, with sub-500ms WebRTC delivery, multi-format
  ingest (WHIP/WHEP, SRT, RTMP), and cross-platform playback SDKs.
