Work Experience
MasterStream.iR Self-employed
Founder and Developer Aug 2020 - Present
2020 I started exploring the game streaming industry and quickly noticed a major gap in Iran's market: the lack of reliable multi-platform streaming services. To address this, I developed MasterStream, a robust platform that enables simultaneous streaming to multiple platforms such as YouTube, Twitch, and Instagram. Utilizing PHP for the website and NodeJS with FFmpeg for the RTMP server, I successfully launched MasterStream. The platform quickly gained traction within the Iranian streaming community, and today, it supports over 6,000 streamers and handles more than 8TB of daily data transfer, establishing itself as the largest restreaming service in Iran.
2023 In 2023, MasterStream reached a pivotal milestone. I encountered persistent issues with FFmpeg and NodeJS, particularly memory leaks that affected performance. Determined to enhance the platform, I embarked on developing a new RTMP Server and client from scratch using Python. By thoroughly studying Adobe's RTMP protocol specifications, I successfully launched an advanced version of MasterStream. This new iteration operates independently of FFmpeg and other external tools, offering low-latency, high-performance streaming with minimal CPU and memory usage. This upgrade significantly improved the streaming experience, ensuring efficiency and reliability for our users.
2025 In August 2025, MasterStream underwent a comprehensive platform overhaul across multiple layers:
-
Back-End Revamp:
The entire website back-end was rebuilt from the ground up, resulting in major performance, scalability, and maintainability improvements. The PHP framework was upgraded from version 7.4 to 8.4, ensuring compatibility with modern features, better security, and enhanced performance.
-
Front-End Redesign:
The entire front-end experience was redesigned to deliver a smoother, faster, and more engaging user experience. The user dashboard was fully reimagined, leveraging libraries such as Barba.js, WebPack, and other modern UI frameworks to create a highly interactive and responsive interface.
-
Supplementary Service Enhancements:
All Node.js-based complementary services, including the real-time multi-platform chat aggregation system—allowing streamers to view and manage chats from Twitch, Aparat, Kick, and more within a single overlay or dock—were completely rewritten. These services now offer advanced customization options for chat appearance and viewer counters, enabling streamers to tailor the experience to their preferences.
-
Streaming Core Optimization:
The custom Python-based RTMP server, introduced in 2023, was extensively optimized to minimize CPU and memory usage. Testing confirmed a 40–50% reduction in server resource consumption, significantly lowering infrastructure costs while maintaining ultra-low latency streaming.
-
Advanced Protocol Support:
Full support for Enhanced RTMP v1 and Enhanced RTMP v2 (up to release v2-2025-04-22-r1) was implemented. This includes broader compatibility with both legacy and modern encoders:
- Video: Sorenson-H263, ScreenVideo, On2-VP6, H.264, H.265/HEVC, AV1, VP9 Broadcaster, FFmpeg
- Audio: ADPCM, MP3, Linear PCM, Nellymoser, G.711, AAC, Speex, OPUS, MP3-8K
Additionally, multi-track audio/video streaming, compatible with Amazon IVS Multitrack standards, was added at the server level (currently in private beta).
-
Stream Control Features:
Streamers can now manage connections in real time—e.g., disconnecting or reconnecting individual destinations, muting audio for specific platforms mid-stream—directly through the user dashboard without affecting the overall broadcast.

IRTwitch.Fun Self-employed
Founder and Developer Jul 2022 - Oct 2023
In July 2022, the Iranian government blocked access to Twitch, leaving many Iranian viewers unable to watch their favorite streams. To solve this issue, I developed a platform using PHP and NodeJS that retrieves live stream videos from Twitch and replays them on our site, effectively bypassing government filters. Streamers must grant permission for their streams to be replayed. We also integrated Twitch chat support using IRC and Socket.io. Since its launch, the platform has attracted over 55,000 unique viewers per month, providing a seamless streaming experience for the Iranian audience.

Over the next four years, MasterWoW flourished, amassing over 60,000 player accounts and fostering a vibrant community. Today, it continues to thrive, offering an engaging and immersive gaming experience for players worldwide.
2024 In 2024, we rebranded the project to MasterWoW Legacy and launched a new server called MasterWoW.net. We began developing a new game server with enhanced features and fresh content while keeping the old one, MasterWoW Legacy, online for players to relive their memories.
