The headline basically says it, I have Nginx connect as a reverse proxy to one of my Icecast2 streams.
Now it would be nice if, for every new connection to Nginx, it would not proxy a new connection to the Icecast server but rather re-use its already existing (and sole) connection. What I am trying to achieve is that there basically is only one client to the Icecast stream at all, being the reverse proxy. Nginx then should somehow internally connect to itself so my bandwidth doesn't explode with every new listener at the Icecast server per se.
Can it be done?
