Proxy And Buffering

Proxy And Buffering

StreamMaster has a lightning-fast memory-only buffering system that enables several advanced features:

1. All in RAM circular buffering system
2. Each backend stream gets its on buffer with logging
3. Clients connecting in will use the same buffer if that particular URL is streaming already. This means one connection to the backend while providing multiple client connections.
4. Stream failover handling - Multiple streams can be added to a single stream to allow for failover. You can lump multiple streams for the same channel into one extended stream for great realiability. More methods are in development!

Proxy Types

• None - Redirect client to the original URL. No buffering or extended streaming is possible.
• StreamMaster - has a very fast buffering system. Setting the proxy to StreamMaster will utilize this buffer mechanism and allow for advanced functionality.
