you have understand two things:<div><br></div><div>-youtube is not a real stream, it is just serving you flv file and that is it</div><div>-real streaming is also possible with flash using it own protocol: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_Time_Messaging_Protocol">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_Time_Messaging_Protocol</a></div>

Why? You use the proxy_store mechanism as a cache - it would only keep<br>
the most used videos.<br>
<br>
In return you save on paying s3 outgoing bandwidth (and your own<br>
provider for incoming bandwith). Instead you only pay for your<br>
outgoing bandwidth on your local server for the times a cache hits.<br>
<br>
I don't do this for videos, but for images - instead of serving '000s<br>
of tb of data each month from s3, I use my local server which will do<br>
the same traffic for a third of the price.<br>
