Hey,

I would like to know if using nDVR information as time and day are stored together with recordings. Can I capture a recording, for example, of day February 11th, 2015 from 17:00 to 17:30? Is this possible?

Grateful now.

Hi,

If you have a continuous nDVR recording, and you wish to playback a certain segment of that recording, you can use the [Wowza nDVR Playlist Request API](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-use-wowza-ndvr-playlist-request-api) and request the desired section of that recording, using the **UTC Based Request Delegate**.

Your nDVR request, for an Apple HLS stream, would look something like this:

```auto
http://[wowza-ip-address]:1935/dvr/myStream/playlist.m3u8?DVR&wowzadvrplayliststart=20150211170000&wowzadvrplaylistduration=1800000

```

If you want to enable nDVR recording for a live stream at one point and stop it some time later, you can use the nDVR AddOn recording API. Please take a look at the [How to use Wowza nDVR AddOn recording API](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-use-wowza-ndvr-recording-api) forum article for instructions on how to configure and use this API.

Zoran
