The wowza engineers would like you to provide more detail on what you mean by single period or multi-period? Are you referring to the tag for a schedule of streams in DASH?

Please provide as much info as you can on your workflow so we can properly direct you. Thanks

I see. We only support one tag for that manifest. You can transcode the StreamPublisher output stream name, then you can have multiple renditions. But, if you want to add your own transcoded outputs, that is not possible without custom development.

Feel free to submit a ticket if you’d like a Wowza engineer to test this module with what your streaming needs are.
