auto increment liveevent streamname folder/directory for each publish while same streamid string?

Hi,

I think we should be able to do this.

First - Do not specify any query string in your publish string. Just say 'livestream'. This means you are not assigning any event name.

In the livepkgr main.asc, check out the function application.onPublish. When no event name is defined, the application uses the stream name itself as the event name. The code in livepkgr main.asc corresponding to this;

if (queryString == undefined || (queryString.localeCompare("") == 0)) {

        /* Did not find query string so use the streamname as the event id */

        trace("Query string not specified. Using StreamName["

              +streamObj.name+"] as eventname");

Now, to accomplish your task, all you need to do is append some marker to this stream name.

Essentially here:

var liveEventName = streamObj.name

I will leave it to you to make use of timestamps, shared objects etc. to keep track of the event name and incerement it for every publish attempt.

As as example, if you do something like this:

var liveEventName = streamObj.name + "Test"

Your event name will be livestreamTest

I hope this helps in some way.

Thanks,

Shiven
