Handle stream even in uncertain network connection/disconnection

[anand-OSM]

I am streaming video to the stream server. I just want to know if its able to handle such a situation. If network disconnect it holds stream in buffer and once it connect to stream server again, send buffer stream what was held in the offline along with current stream.

Unfortunately, that’s not how it’s implemented. When the connection is lost, the buffer is discarded. I think it would be difficult to implement that.

So it doesn't handle stream if the network connection disconnects and reconnects, it drops the packets ?

Yes, the live streaming data is lost for the duration of time it takes to reconnect.
