Abstract
A device includes a processor and a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations including receiving, via a transmission, a first set of video segments. Each video segment of the first set of video segments includes multiple video frames of a video stream associated with an event. The operations also include sending a replay request for data associated with a particular video stream associated with the event. The replay request is associated with a replay duration. A communication session with a media server is established via a unicast transmission based on the replay request. The operations also include receiving, via the communication session, a second set of video segments associated with the particular video stream and automatically terminating the communication session based on the replay duration.
