automatic stream switching #38
Description
With the new azuracast updates, relays have bitrate/format, unique identifiers, and per-stream listener counts.
the main strategy would be to directing listeners towards the relays.
here is the suggested logic
if relays exist choose a fast relays with least listeners.
if relays exist and speed is low, choose a low bitrate relay with least listeners.
if no relays choose fast non-relay
if relays exist and speed is low, choose low bitrate non-relay.
error handling on loading:
- If > 220, use the other streams
- all relay non-relay high bitrate streams 403ing? Drop the new user to 64
- On 403 during playback? Use another stream.
here are some of the issues I experienced this week:
