+### {% linkable_title Preload Stream %}
+
+If your camera supports it, and the [`stream`](/components/stream) component is setup, You will notice a "Preload Stream" option in the top right of the dialog when clicking to view the camera stream.  This option will keep the stream alive, and preload the feed on Home Assistant startup.  This will result in reduced latency when opening the stream in the frontend, as well as when using the `play_stream` service or Google Assistant integration.  It does, however, utilize more resources on your machine, so it is recommended to check CPU usage if you plan to use this feature.
