Issue/Introduction

The ProxySG does not split on-demand, since it's "on-demand" it can be viewed at any time by different clients.  "On-demand" content is cached.
 

The ProxySG can split live streams if:

* The URL of the stream requested by the client is identical to a previously requested stream

* MMS (Microsoft Media Services), MMSU (MMS UDP), and MMST (MMS TCP) are considered to be identical.

* Native supported streaming protocol must be used by the client to communicate with the proxy SG, i.e. MMS, RTSP, RTSP over HTTP.

If the content is streamed via HTTP, then HTTP handoff must be enabled.
