The cache block configures the caching layer for IPTV streams and metadata. It handles file downloads and caching logic.
- When the TTL expires, the application will attempt to renew the cache. If the file is unchanged (based on Expires,
Last-Modified, and ETag headers), the TTL will be renewed.
- Retention is used to clean up expired cache files that have not been accessed or renewed for the specified time
period.
- Compression can be enabled to reduce disk usage by gzipping cached files. Slightly increased CPU usage is expected
when compression is enabled.
