What is the Difference?
The main difference between the two streams is the resolution. The main stream naturally has a higher resolution than the sub stream. This is because the recorder by default uses the mainstream for it's recordings. The sub stream is instead preferred for live view due to it's lower resolution and lower bandwidth consumption. For live view, the browser will have your streams set to sub stream.
