Hi guys, let me go straight to the goals and issues I am facing
Currently I want to display the stream (from other video/IP cameras) to the network with the overlay images. After that, the server has the capabilities to record the stream, split, stop the recording, and create some snapshots when users need.
Now I have succeeded in creating the transcoded stream with overlay images. I also implemented some win-form based application that creates and sends the HTTP Request to call the server to record, split or stop recording the stream. Now are some issues I am facing, hope you guys can help me figure it out
-
Can I set the default output of the recorded files? Cause the default output is in the ${StorageDir} that I have to define with all stream files in there. I want to set the default output of recorded files to vod/content because I want the user can playback the video whenever they want. Now I just use the absolute path to vod/content in the outputPath param.

How to get the “actual” image that is created by the Create Thumbnail HTTP Provider? Whenever I input the URL, it returns the image, but I don’t know how to get that image programmatically. In additional, is there anyway to get the snapshot/capture of the transcoded stream through HTTP Providers and provide the saving location in the servers ? If it’s possible, then connecting and commanding to wowza server through URL is really great. Now I am just able to connect and send the HTTP Request, but cannot get the HTTP Response because of the servers’ policy and firewalls, etc.
Thank you for your attention and help,
