Basic question

Added by Jad C over 5 years ago

I am new to linux and tvheadend, managed to install tvheadend stable version on amazon linux cloud free tire VPS for education purpose, i have TBS encoder located at my home it publish http stream to the tvheadend, i created two users in tvheadend.

the question is what bandwidth is used from my home to amazon when both users are connected to tveheadend and watching the stream, is it doubled? or Amazon is taking care of the stream bandwidth for the 2 users where i only have one connection from my home, sorry for this basic question - i reviewed the forums but could not find answer

Thanks

TVH act as restreamer, aka 1 incoming stream multiply to number of clients.

If stream from streamer to restremer is 1Mbps and restreamer have 10 clients
from streamer to restreamer will not increase, just output of restreamer will increase.

Thank you for the prompt reply,this is very good news indeed so i can use Amazon Tvheadend VPS as CDN and consume Amazon bandwidth instead of my limited Wan upload speed and internet bandwidth
