ie with this service you will have unlimited storage capacity and low cost.

For example when one of your storage is full, just plug in one more storage and your videos will continue to be saved to the new storage.

This service is designed to replace our current S3, BackBlaze B2 and FTP plugins, but with much more integration with our services, besides you will have no restriction on the amount of storages used.

You can install as many storage nodes as you want, without any geographical restrictions.

• Storage scales as needed
• Minimal start up investment and cost
• Uses the bandwidth of the storage
• Facilitates your server load balancing on the amount of the used bandwidth
• Can speed up delivery based on location of each video

Please check this scenario to try to make the propose of this project clear:

https://github.com/WWBN/AVideo-Storage/wiki/AVideo-Platform-Storage-Scenario-Description

You will need the folowing prerequisites.

We made a video Installing YPTStorage and configuring the YPTStorage plugin

1. PHP 7+
2. Apache XSendFile
3. YPTStorage Plugin
4. AVideo 7.3+

1. Root Access to the server
2. Admin user for AVideo

sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-xsendfile && sudo a2enmod xsendfile

sudo nano /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

<Directory /var/www/html/AVideo-Storage/>
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    XSendFile on
    XSendFilePath /var/www/html/AVideo-Storage/
    AllowOverride All
    Require all granted

    Allow from All
</Directory>

Make sure you enable it before your installation, this is necessary because the Storage installation will check your plugin during the configuration assistant

If you do not have the plugin yet, get it here

On the first access you will be requested for your streamer address. the installation script will try to create your videos directory and your configuration.php file. If any of those fail you will need to create it manually.

The script will create a Storage site for you on your streamer site, but this site will be inactive, you will need to activate it (On the YPTStorage plugin) before proceed.

We currently have this feature enabled on the demo site

We have the following storages:

• https://storage1.avideo.com/
• https://storage2.avideo.com/
• https://storage3.avideo.com/

You can switch the storages from the videos on the videos manager. You will find a move storage button, when you click on it. It will popup a window with the options to move your video to the local storage or one of the 3 storages above.
