Closing files used by VOD application
Hello,
We have a big VOD application, which we sometimes need to replace a media file (like after editing) while the application is running. If someone watch the file it is locked and can't be overwritten. What is the best way to release it while not closing or restarting the whole application?
Thanks,
Eyal.

Thanks - I have seen this thread before asking, but it seemed to me to be client initiated, while I need it to be server initiated. However, I did succeed to use some of its code within an http handler I created, which iterate through all open streams, find the one playing the file and closes it.
Thanks,
Eyal.
