ABSTRACT:
Video or media content is transferred to a local video or media server by a system administrator or central content programmer. Client data processing modules, i.e., client machines, are configured to query for local content associated with a particular file and stream names. The local search replaces the original stream name with a stream name associated with a local area network. The modified configuration file of the client machines provisionally substitutes a local stream name for the original stream name linked to the central media server. If a local query script searching for selected content locally, results in an error response indicating the requested content is unavailable locally, then the provisional stream name is deleted and replaced with the original stream name. The original stream request for selected content, which was made to the central media or video server is accordingly implemented as a fallback.
