If I buffer read videos using headers i.e. content video/mp4 from Server 2 in Server 1, will it still be using the power of Server 2 to play this video or not? How does buffer reading work? What type of power will Server 2 require to make this process smooth?
Comments
Video decoding and playback occur on the client, not on the server.
Server 2 only needs a potato's power, while client needs Supergirl's power.
