How can in live/stream-name.smil/Manifest add my attributes?

```auto
<CustomAttributes><Attribute Name="cameraAngle" Value="camera1"/></CustomAttributes>

```

An example [http://smooth-las-akam.istreamplanet.com/vod/mix10ces/CES\_2010\_MCA1.ism/Manifest](http://smooth-las-akam.istreamplanet.com/vod/mix10ces/CES_2010_MCA1.ism/Manifest)

I do not think there is a way to do this, not that I know of anyway.

I confirmed that there is not a way to do this at present in Wowza. The suggestion has been forwarded to the backlog. I can’t say when to expect this to be considered or added. Thanks for the suggestion.
