has anyone here used wget or similar command to redirect/reflect a
live stream data from one server to another server ?
I wanted to use each server's upload bandwidth to transfer a live
stream to a new server
that way, my hope is that I can balance the bandwidth load a bit
between servers for users in different areas.
Would it just be a question of duplicating the headers of the
incoming file and redirecting it to another server?
I am 'fishing' a bit so any help from those who use php with live
streaming is appreciated.
Server side:
live stream is encoded and sent to
streaming server 1 in Los Angeles which sends the data to
streaming server 2 in Chicago which sends the data to
streaming server 3 in Mexico City
Client Side:
The below is pretty simple to do :)
When the user tries to access the live broadcast stream, a php script
determines the nearest non-overloaded server.
In this case, the user is directed to the live stream on server two
in Chicago
many thanks
