    Default naming conventions for saved live streams

    hello folks,

    when i run live stream, it's all perfectly fine. the live stream is playing in my embedded flash player, with the name of created folder in apllications directory. when live streaming stops, the live stream is saved as regular flv file to folder specified in application.xml (<StreamType>live-record</StreamType>, <StorageDir>C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\flashvideo</StorageDir>) what i want to change here, is the naming standard for those saved videos. no matter what the original live stream was called, the stored video will be named somewhat similar to this : livestream.flv, livestream_0.flv, livestream_1.flv, livestream_2.flv and so on, with _2 being the oldest and not numbered file being the newest. where can i set my own naming parameters for the saved videos?

    Default

    This is the default behavior, exactly. Try it out with "live-record" StreamType.

    Thanks Richard, however i have my StreamType set to live-record, i have included that in the brackets in the first post (<StreamType>live-record</StreamType>). the naming convention didn't change nevertheless.

    Have you made any changes to /conf/Streams.xml ?

    The default behavior with live-record that I confirmed this morning is file versioning using the exact naming convention you described. You can change this in /conf/Streams.xml
