Wowza can’t change these, but you could use the StreamNameAlias addon to use one but play another:

You have to encode the file with those PIDs, or you can use StreamNameAlias

Take a look at the [Stream Name Alias article](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-get-the-streamnamealias-addon). Within the zip file is a README.html that has step-by-step instructions.
