How to stream multiple VOD files like one?

Wowza Streaming Engine

hi,
I have mp4 files recorded in the wowza content folder in chronological order.
I can stream them to each user, but I want to stream these files like ‘one’ VOD file. After reading the wowza manual, I found a way to organize VOD files into playlists and stream them like TV shows.

But it’s not a perfect solution for me. Users may want to use the controller to select a specific time zone on the screen. However, in these cases, these are separate split VOD files, so you can only move them to VOD, which is the current playback time. I came up with some solutions, but they weren’t perfect.

(ex: Use FFmpeg to concatenate vod files and provide them to users .But too slow)

Is there a way to merge VOD files into Wowza and provide them as one? Or is it only possible with a playlist? I’d appreciate your help.
