Ever notice how interactive video feels great one moment and laggy the next? We dig into why - and what it takes to make streams feel as immediate and fair as a top-tier multiplayer game. Coming from a gaming-first background, we talk candidly about round-trip latency, jitter, and why 30 ms one way is the magic threshold for experiences where people don’t just watch, but participate. We walk through the hard lessons of early cloud gaming, from capex-heavy builds to routing realities, and show...

In this eye-opening conversation, Mark Donnigan explores what happens when you combine the incredible performance of Video Processing Units (VPUs) with thoughtfully designed software frameworks.
