How can I playback all the fragmented f4f files that were recorded from a live stream? The live stream is over and I want to offer the content as vod now.

I copied all the f4f, f4x, bootstrap, control and meta files over to /webroot/vod/

Do I need to create a f4m file in this directory as well? If so what should the f4m file look like?

<manifest xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/f4m/2.0">

<baseURL>http://fms/live/</baseURL>

<media href="mbhsstream4.f4m" bitrate="682"/>

</manifest>

Thanks!

    I am not sure whether this would work as i have never tried it. If you are ok to keep the content in "livepkgr" itself - what you can do is after the event - just change the manifest.xml file or set-level manifest file and introduce dvrinfo tag with windowduration set to -1( see spec here for more info: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/osmf.adobe/index.php?title=Flash_Media_Manifest_(F4M)_File_Format#.3CdvrInfo.3E )
