Using caching application as a fall back to an ondeman application

Is there a way to configure wowza so that if a file is not available via a “vod” application, that it will the go to the “caching” application?

Hi,

You can do that through a single application. You can configure the application to try to access the local content first, and if it is not available, it will look into the Media Cache source.

Please take a look at the “Media Cache implementation that will first try to access content locally before getting it from a remote source (MediaCacheLocalFirstRandomAccessReader)” forum article.

Hello,

I added the following properties (under - Root/Application), not sure about how I add the cache application or storage location.
