Hello, I am new here and just ran across a problem and just trying to see if there is anyway around it.
So basically I work for a company that streams to multiple different platforms and the other day we had an incident where we lost internet connection for about 2 to 3 seconds. So obviously the stream went down for about 15 seconds for it to buffer, so is there anyway or setting that during that time the stream would continue as if nothing ever happened. Like the audience wouldn't be able to tell that we lost connection for that short time?

Interesting question. No data going through but pretend it is like switching off a light but pretend it still is giving off light. The streaming to platform should be able to handle that with some AI that generates (guesses) the missing images.

I would strongly recommend a bonding device that provides an "unbreakable" and combined connection.
