Hi everyone,

is it possible to configure a Wowza server as Repeater that talks to a Wowza Origin, but in the Wowza Repeater we want to implement a Module that override the resolvePlayAlias() method to modify the stream name on each Live request (rtsp or http) ?

Thank you,

Nicolas

Hi Nicolas,

To clarify, you want an [origin-edge infrastructure](https://www.wowza.com/docs/scaling-with-wowza-live-stream-repeater), and have the edge server handle all playback requests from the clients using a custom play aliasing module? If so, this should be possible by adding the [StreamNameAlias](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-get-the-streamnamealias-addon) module on the edge server. The origin-edge functionality should be independent of this module.

For example:

Origin server is streaming originStream --\> repeated as incoming originStream in Edge servers --\> aliased as myStream for playback clients
