Question

Stop live *Stream* per Client, and keep connection (for chat) ?

Is it possible to stop a (live) Stream from playing for a user, but keep his NetConnection open for eg chat functionality?

I only see a setBandwidthLimit to accomplish something similar to this, but then, if BW is set to 0, chat won't work.

Why isn't there a built in feature to do something of seemingly common necessity like Client.stream.stop/change function to stop or change what video playback the client sees?

    You have a valid requirement. Will forward it to my team.

    If you have your own client app, you may call from application client.call(setPlayStop, "mystream"); and define setPlayStop in the client application to call Netstream.stop() on "myStream" netstream object.
