Hi,

I have a liverecod application in which the recorded video is stored in the wowza server as .flv file by default. By using ‘ModuleMediaWriterFileMover’ a copy of the flv file is converted to mp4 file and stored in the wowza server as wel. **Now i want to rename both(flv & mp4) the files.** Renaming is possible only for that flv file but it is not getting renamed for the mp4 file. Am renaming the flv file on onWriteComplete method and it is getting renamed but it is not renaming for the mp4 file. I want to know when can i rename the mp4 file ?

Hi Sharmi,

You can get a higher level of control over moving and re-naming streams with the IMediaWriterActionNotify module:

Hi Shami,

You could try adding this method:

```auto
public void onMP4AddMetadata(IMediaStream stream, Map<String, Object> extraMetadata)
 {
 getLogger().info("ModuleWriteListener.onMP4AddMetadata["+stream.getContextStr()+"]");
}

```
