Good afternoon! How can we change file template for all recording files? I check Record all incoming streams in application config & restart it. If I publish stream with name camera1 wowza will write camera1.mp4 file. It’s good. if file exist wowza will write with segmentation camera1\_0.mp4. it’s not good. How to add to name of the stream unixtime for example? Or how to disable this segmentation? And second question: I don’t undestand this logic. If i stream firstly the stream with name camera1 for ex. wowza write camera1.mp4. second time, wowza rename first file {filename}\_0.mp4 and last will be written as camera1.mp4 . It’s very strange. And plus, why wowza create 2 files: camera1.mp4 (write all data in it) and camera1.mp4\_tmp with zero size? I don’t know how monitoring end of recording in function. If all data write in tmp file I can use some action on event on\_modify in filesystem. Can i change it? Thank you and will be waiting for an answer. ---

Hi, The “Record all incoming streams” option doesn’t allow you to set a custom naming or versioning template. You can use the [LiveStreamRecordAutoRecord example](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-start-and-stop-live-stream-recordings-programmatically-livestreamrecordautorecord-example) which uses [IMediaStreamActionNotify3](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-start-and-stop-live-stream-recordings-programmatically-imediastreamactionnotify3) and modify this as required or use the code provided to [move and rename recordings](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-use-imediawriteractionnotify-to-programmatically-move-and-rename-recordings-of-live-streams) which can also be edited as needed.

Hi, For streams which are ingested by pulling the source with a .stream file you can either copy the streams to another application using [ModuleDuplicateStreams](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-duplicate-streams-to-another-application-instance-moduleduplicatestreams%28ModuleDuplicateStreams%29) and record them in the new application or publish them to a new application configured to record them using [Stream Targets](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-stream-to-another-wowza-streaming-engine-instance). For authentication you can remove the default username/password for RTMP authentication and use [ModuleSecureURLParams](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-secure-publishing-from-an-rtmp-encoder-that-does-not-support-authentication-modulesecureurlparams%28ModuleSecureURLParams%29).

Hello, another Question to be sure about that issue. We test with Makito X that is abviously not able to send rtmp to wowza because it cannot specify an application. So the only option there is ts over udp to WowzaStreamingEngine and a .stream file with content udp://0.0.0.0:PORT. That works as expected but it does not automatically record anything when a stream is present. Is there a way to make that happen or is it not possible with .stream files? * * * Update MakitoX is working with RTMP to wowza but only without authentication so far. Regards Miguel ---
