Thanks for your question [@Asittest srivastava](http://community.wowza.com/community/questions/48917/publishing-a-video-file-using-webrtc-publishplayer.html#). Wowza does not currently support video on demand (VOD) through WebRTC, only live streaming. WebRTC is still available in preview mode only through Wowza and perhaps this VOD support will change in the future. ---
