currently playing file (SMIL as live stream)

hi, I have Wowza 4.5 on Linux and am using streampublisher for live streaming based on an SMIL file.

I want to know how I can determine which mp4 file is currently being streamed.

I know I can visually see the file that is playing (go to the test player link and view the video) but is there a log file where I can see what the name is of the MP4 file being currently streamed ?

These APIs may accommodate this request:

public void onHTTPStreamerRequest(IHTTPStreamerSession httpSession, IHTTPStreamerRequestContext reqContext)

And specific to HLS:

public void onHTTPCupertinoStreamerRequest(HTTPStreamerSessionCupertino httpSession, HTTPStreamerCupertinoRequestContext reqContext)

There is also a validation event handler:

Implement the IVHostHTTPStreamerRequestValidator interface and handle the validateHTTPStreamerRequest event.

You can find more information in the ServerSideAPI guide that ships with Wowza [install-dir]/documentation/WowzaStreamingEngine_ServerSideAPI.pdf

Kind regards,

Salvadore
