I really don’t know what you are asking. What packet dumps? What CDN are you trying to push to? What warnings/errors are you seeing in Wowza logs? What does your server-side publishing code look like? We need a lot (and I mean a lot) of detail to help. Charlie ---

Where do you see this? The API call should change the user agent and not just append to it. Charlie ---

The fact that the full URL is logged (with the _definst_) part does not mean the parameter is not working. The parameter controls what is sent in the **connect** method. Charlie ---

call this before connect: ```auto publisher.setRemoveDefaultAppInstance(true); ``` The _definst_ will still show up in logging statements from the publisher but will not be sent to the CDN. Charlie ---

I get the same results in my test: no onMetaData event using Flash with pushed stream. I don’t know why right now. Will post back when I find out more. Richard ---

I do have an update now: We don’t push the onMetaData event. We may change this in the future but there is no short term plan to do so. Richard ---

I don’t the answer off the top of my head, so I would have to set up a project and test to answer it. So, if you can try it yourself it would make more sense. Richard ---

The API seems to allow for it. Try it out. Richard ---

I don’t think it’s any problem. It’s a built-in method for sensing if the stream is there and starting it as soon as it is. Richard ---

To test, you should be able to play the stream from the server/application you are pushing to. Richard ---

Peter, There is not a way to exclude Application instance at this time. Can I ask, why do you want to do that? Not sure about stream length, but I don’t think there is a practical limitation. Have you tried adding param list to application or stream name? What do you get in destination? Richard ---

It would be using a liverepeater stream on the edge, as you described: Edge /content/origin.stream Edge StreamManger start origin.stream on edge application with MediaCaster type “liverepeater” PushPublish module installed on edge pushes origin.stream Richard [Previous page](https://community.wowza.com/t/push-publishing-addon-package-to-push-stream-to-cdns-and-service-providers/100.md?page=1) [Next page](https://community.wowza.com/t/push-publishing-addon-package-to-push-stream-to-cdns-and-service-providers/100.md?page=3)
