Hi Tom,

Actually, it's "maybe".

A lot of what folks think of as "streaming media" is nothing more than a
static file that is sent via HTTP to your favorite media player.  Since
all the major media players support HTTP streaming as well as HTTP
download, it's difficult to determine what is which when, especially if
you're perusing the ISA logs.

In the case of static files over HTTP, ISA *may* cache these if the
client and server headers support caching *or* if ISA is configured to
"cache the Internet".

In short, ISA doesn't cache A/V content that is actually "streamed", but
it *may* cache that content if it's delivered via HTTP download.

HTH,

Can someone tell me, how to cache directly streaming media from the
internet, and make it directly available for internal users ?
