What is the setStreamMetadata's equivalent for iOS

In android, before we start the stream, we can set the stream’s metadata with the WOWZBroadcastConfig#setStreamMetadata method and later we can receive this metadata with the IMediaStreamActionNotify2#onMetaData callback.

However in iOS I’m unable to find the equivalent method. Wowza provides this android guide that in the last chapter talks about this but in the equivalent iOS guide this last chapter is not present.

Reading the iOS reference, every property called metadata was read-only and there was not apparent method to define this info.

Does iOS has this equivalent method?

iOS does not have this convenience method. One can accomplish this in another way… mainly make your own data dictionary with this info and put it into your send metadata call. This link may be of use: https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-use-timed-metadata-in-wowza-live-streaming-workflows
