Passing Query String When Streaming to iPhone/iPad

Is it possible to pass query string parameters to a url used for streaming to iPhone/iPad such as:

http://[wowza-address]:1935/vod/mp4:Extremists.m4v/playlist.m3u8

For example, I know it’s possible to pass query string parameters to a standard RTMP url such as:

rtmp://[wowza-address]:1935/vod/Extremists.flv?myparam=123

and then read it in the play method by parsing the stream name in teh params list.

However, is it possible to do something similar with the iPhone/iPad streaming URL? If so, where should the query string parameter be placed? after the video file name or after the playlist.m3u8?

Thanks,

Ran

Put querystring after “playlist.m3u8”, and see this post for how to extract:
