Folder input
The folder input will make available all supported files in the given folder as streams under this stream name, in the format STREAMNAME+FILENAME. For example, if your stream is called 'files' and you have a file called 'movie.flv', you could access this file streamed as 'files+movie.flv'. This input does not support subdirectories. To support more complex libraries, look into the documentation for the STREAM_SOURCE trigger.
Folder Core
Every input within MistServer requires a Stream name and Source to understand what these mean exactly we recommend reading up on Stream settings

| debug | The debug level at which messages need to be printed. | debug | Inherited from parent process | debug | --debug |
| Memory page timeout | For bufferless or live inputs like HLS, set the timeout in seconds for old, inactive pages to be deleted. A longer value results in more memory usage, but ensures that recently buffered data stays in memory for longer | Number (unsigned integer) | 15 | pagetimeout | --pagetimeout |
