Video delay
Here's the difference between it and time shift

1. Video Delay:

   • It allows you to delay the live video stream for a few seconds or minutes and watch it later.
   • It is implemented by using Random Access Memory (RAM) in the device to store the delayed video.
   • It provides smoother and higher precision performance due to the fast data read and write speed of RAM.
   • It allows you to pause, resume, rewind, and delay the live stream according to your preference.
   • The specified delay time is preset and automatically accessed without the need for reconfiguring it in case of encryption disruption or signal weakness for a second.

2. Time Shift:

   • It allows you to record the live stream on external storage media such as a USB flash drive or an external hard drive.
   • It relies on storing the live stream in external memory, which means it requires a longer time for writing and reading compared to RAM.
   • You can pause, resume, fast forward, rewind, skip advertisements, and go back to previously recorded live events.
   • Time Shift may require resetting if there is a broadcast interruption or signal loss, requiring a fresh restart.

In general, Video Delay provides smoother and more precise performance due to the use of RAM, and it allows for easy control of timing and skipping advertisements. On the other hand, Time Shift relies on external storage media and offers greater flexibility in terms of recording time, playback, and skipping.

It is important to note that the availability of these features may vary from device to device and from firmware to firmware, depending on the capabilities of the device and the installed software version and system settings.
