StreamIsRecorded is sent after onStatus #422

Open amoskovsky opened 10 years ago

According to the rtmp spec, the StreamIsRecorded message should be sent in response to the play command before the StreamBegin and onStatus messages. And this is how many streaming servers seen in the field work. However nginx-rtmp sends StreamIsRecorded after onStatus. So the client can't detect is it a live or recorded stream at the point it receives onStatus, which complicates things when you need different processing of those kinds of streams.

Is this behaviour intentional or it's just a bug?
