[Freeswitch-users] how can i do stream piping in freeswitch

[Aqs Younas]

Actually we are running a radio setup in which users listen to different
radio's streams by pressing the desired extension for that radio.

We have more than 400 radio streams and concurrent  peak of 350 calls. For
example, 100 users are listening to same station and after couple of
seconds they will be listening to different station. Currently all these
connections are being made with stream provider, i.e, 100 connections will
be open with stream provider.

We want is that if a user is listening to a specific station and another
user also wants to listen that station he(second user) must share the
stream or connection created by the first user instead of creating a
separate connection with stream provider.

Thanks for you time.
