In this case you will have to do a client-side solution to interrogate the server and get the connection count, either by using an HTTPProvider or a RTMP netconnection.call. Based on the number of connections from the answer, you should decide to send a play request to that particular server or not. Zoran ---

Hi, You could do it using a custom Wowza module and use something like this: [How to redirect an HTTP or RTSP session through server-side code](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-redirect-an-http-or-rtsp-session-through-server-side-code) Zoran
