Hello,

I’ve started using Wowza recently and so far its working great.

_I want to implement a live video stream (from IP camera) which will be available only at certain hours of the day/night._

_For example: only between 9AM-11AM and 2PM-4PM and rest of the time to be unavailable._

_In the same time the stream should be available 24/7 on a different address stream._

_Currently I’ve managed to configure the stream (RTMP source) as live application and its working great._

_Anybody done this before, and if yes, can I have some howto please?_

_Thank you._

Hello there and welcome to the Wowza support forum.

You can use this module to duplicate the stream to another application instance (available 24/7):

How to duplicate streams to another application instance (ModuleDuplicateStreams)

And you can override play to control access to the other stream, based on some criteria you want to set:

[How to override play to control access](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-override-play-to-control-access)

If you need help with this, or want a different solution, you can post a request to the [find a consultant forum](http://community.wowza.com/c/-/7).

Regards,
