Hi! Is it possible to customize the names of the files recorded? (preferably without Java coding). I am looking for: Video\_Time\_Date.mp4 Where Time and Date are taken when the file is created. Thanks! Atmapuri ---

I do not know of a way to do this without coding. With a StreamType of “live-record” you would have to use this API: [How to use IMediaWriterActionNotify to programmatically move and rename recordings of live streams](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-use-imediawriteractionnotify-to-programmatically-move-and-rename-recordings-of-live-streams) For more control over your live recordings you can use the LiveStreamRecord API: [How to record live streams (HTTPLiveStreamRecord)](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-record-live-streams-httplivestreamrecord) Specific to your case would be this section of the LiveStreamRecord article: [Specifying the file version naming convention](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-record-live-streams-httplivestreamrecord#ilivestreamrecordfileversiondelegate) Salvadore
