As I read about altref frames they mayn't be used for display. Aren't
we wasting bandwidth by sending them. Equivalent bits can be
distributed to shown frame and PSNR can be increased.
What is the recommended frequency of sending altref? Is reference
encoder is generating altref frames?
The question of whether or not one is wasting bandwidth is based on how the alt-ref frame is generated and used for prediction of other frames. It is possible to increase bitrate if one inserts a alt-frame with not much information and which no other frame refers to. But in general a judicious use of alt-ref frame is intended to reduce the bitrate.
Recommended frequency - Depends on application, complexity and the content. And I think ref encoder can generate alt-ref frames.

Are you talking about live streaming over network? I do not know if
there was some changes, but alt-ref frames are generated only on two
pass encoding.
