Hi Richard,

I have already asked in the forum for this [Issues with recorded videos](http://community.wowza.com/t/-/44169)

The logs files are showing the same issue mentioned here “killUnidentifiedSessions: Killing unidentified session:” , though it is an INFO but it is recording videos where the videos are not saved.
