Continuous Real-Time Feeds
The OVS can store the most recent portion of a
continuous real-time feed
, or an endless stream of one-step encoded video. A
continuous real-time feed enables a client to search the most recent portion of
ongoing video, such as the last 12 hours of a 24-hour-a-day news broadcast.

is a collection of titles, each representing a series of parts of
physical content files. As an administrator, you can define logical content to
customize the multimedia data your clients can request.
