Whilst I believe that underneath, there is some caching/buffering of
data, it wouldn't manage low-bandwidth connections too well and you
will likely get stuttering on Wi-Fi.
One option would be to have the remote frontend as a seperare backend,
and rsync the recordings to it. Then the data can trickle down in the
background.
