Pre-Allocate Storage for a Rolling Buffer
Media Server must allocate storage for a rolling buffer before it can write encoded video to the buffer. Allocating storage is not instantaneous so to ensure that Media Server can start recording from a stream immediately, pre-allocate storage before you start a session.
