Proxy Video to different sites
Completed
Is there a way to proxy video on a server which is different to the server which has the cameras added to it?
My scenario is
A group of servers at location A have all the cameras added to it. This is due those cameras terminating their network connections here.
A group of servers at location B (this is dynamic and can change) where clients login to view the cameras. The connection between location A and B is metered and low bandwidth.
The servers are within the same NXWitness system.
Is there a way for the servers at location B to pull the video streams once from location A to then distribute to multiple clients at location B. Rather than multiple streams being pulled from location A when 2 clients at location B request the same camera.
Multicast from the camera to location A is not possible.

Hi, unfortunately the VMS does not currently have the ability to cache streams locally on a server for this purpose.
With that said, there are early plans to implement such a feature, however there is no ETA or timeline yet for when this will be released.
If you would prefer to see this sooner rather than later then I would suggest making a post in our Feature Feedback forum where you can specifically request this feature. The more interest that may be shown for this feature, the more likely it might gain additional priority for a future upcoming release.
Please let me know if there are any further questions/concerns.
