No help on this issue someone?

tried with:

live

${com.wowza.wms.context.VHostConfigHome}/content

${com.wowza.wms.context.VHostConfigHome}/keys

cupertinostreamingpacketizer, mpegdashstreamingpacketizer, sanjosestreamingpacketizer, smoothstreamingpacketizer

versionFile

false

Boolean

appendFile

true

Boolean

No lucky, bellow my body params:

var bodyparam = {

“restURI” : WowzaApiProxy.REST\_URL + “/streamrecorders/” + streamName,

“recorderName” : streamName,

“instanceName” : “_definst_”,

“recorderState” : “”,

“defaultRecorder” : false,

“segmentationType” : “None”,

“outputPath” : “/Library/WowzaStreamingEngine-4.4.1/content/”,

“baseFile” : streamName + ‘.mp4’,

“fileFormat” : “MP4”,

“fileVersionDelegateName” : “com.wowza.wms.livestreamrecord.manager.StreamRecorderFileVersionDelegate”,

“fileTemplate” : “${BaseFileName}”,

“segmentDuration” : 900000,

“segmentSize” : 10485760,

“segmentSchedule” : “0 \* \* \* \* \*”,

“recordData” : true,

“startOnKeyFrame” : true,

“splitOnTcDiscontinuity” : false,

“option” : " — ",

“moveFirstVideoFrameToZero” : true,

“currentSize” : 0,

“currentDuration” : 0,

“recordingStartTime” : “”

};

As per docs the field “segmentationType” : “None” should be doing the work to append to the same file, but no lucky too.

Really need some help on this, don’t know more what to try.

Thanks in advance.
