Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A system is described herein for streaming content to a plurality of client devices of the type including a video display. The system includes: a host server, a communication network to enable communication between the virtual machines and the client devices, and a data structure accessible by the host server storing a combined manifest for AV data assets loaded across at least a plurality of virtual machines. The host server is configured to include a plurality of virtual machines each configured to receive commands to load or cache audio-visual (AV) data assets into a memory for processing and delivery of content to a client device. Additionally, the host server is configured to intercept a command from a virtual machine to load or cache a data asset, compare the data asset to the manifest, and if the data asset exists in the manifest, enable the virtual machine to access an instance of the data asset stored in the manifest.
