I know this has probably been asked before, but can’t seem to find anything using search.

My content consists of thousands of videos. These are further broken down into live streams (VOD as live stream). My question is this, is there a way to specify a separate .smil file for each stream, or if I were to set them up as separate live applications, could I specify what .smil file to use for each application? Trying to put all of those videos into one .smil file seems to be rather labor heavy, not to mention trying to locate an error in a list that large. I don’t even know how big of a .smil file WOWZA can handle.
