Hi there!

Can i change the Extension of the Smooth Streaming Manifest

So that this URL is possible

[http://orf2.orf.cdn.ors.at/orf2\_cache/q8c.sdp/Manifest.mss](http://orf2.orf.cdn.ors.at/orf2_cache/q8c.sdp/Manifest.mss)

instead of

[http://orf2.orf.cdn.ors.at/orf2\_cache/q8c.sdp/Manifest](http://orf2.orf.cdn.ors.at/orf2_cache/q8c.sdp/Manifest)

Regards

Robert

Hi,

It’s possible to rewrite stream names using [stream aliases](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-get-the-streamnamealias-addon) but nothing that would affect the output URL in this way. It may be possible using rewrite logic at a web server, e.g. Apache’s [mod\_rewrite](http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_rewrite.html) and then redirecting to the Wowza HTTP server?

Regards,

Paul
