- is a program for organizing streaming IP TV on the network via HTTP.
One server can serve thousands of clients simultaneously.

The focus is on maximum performance, as well as a variety of subtle adjustments related to the perceptual quality of customer service: speed channel switching, fault tolerance transfer.

Implemented proxying one to many: the data received via the one HTTP connection to be given away to the set of connected clients.

Also available lite version Multi Stream daemon Lite (msd_lite) open source under the BSD license.

• FreeBSD
• Linux

• support for IPv4 and IPv6
• analyzer MPEG2-TS stream
• Zero Copy on Send (ZCoS) - reduces the overhead of service connected clients, all the work of sending the data to the client assumes the OS kernel
• support half closed http clients
• receiving udp-multicast, including rtp, simultaneously with different interfaces
• receiving tcp-http-get (in a single stream and broadcast to multiple clients)
• automatic shut-off from the sources if there is no connected clients
• the use of various TCP Congestion Control algorithms depending on the port to which the client came and the URL the client's request
• “smart” sending MPEG2-TS headers new customers
• instantaneous sending new client data from the ring buffer in order to minimize waiting times start playback
• sending any additional http headers in requests and responses
• Templates settings for Stream Hub and Stream Src
• detailed statistics for each TCP connection, to help you find problems at the network level
