We have installed wowza 3.5.2 for Live streaming & also using nDVR add-on to record last 24 hrs. stream data which is working fine.

To playback DVR content we referred tutorial posted on [https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-use-wowza-ndvr-playlist-request-api](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-use-wowza-ndvr-playlist-request-api)

We are able to play these contents by passing parameters wowzadvrplayliststart & wowzadvrplaylistduration in the URL. i.e. http://[wowza-address]:1935/dvr/myStream/playlist.m3u8?DVR&wowzadvrplayliststart=60000&wowzadvrplaylistduration=300000

But our requirement is to play contents using the UTC time which we are not able configure.

Please guide us how to go about it.
