Subject: Saving a presentation.

Hi all,
     I'm trying to save the presentation  in my rendering plug-in.  From =
what I can tell, there are two requirements for this to happen; 1. The =
client has to be told that the presentation can be saved to disk and 2. =
The rendering plug-in has to support it.  Implementing =
IRMAPacketHookHelper is trivial but how do I tell the client that the =
presentation can be saved in the first place.  The only mention I see of =
it is in the documentation regarding RMFF, or Real Media File Format.  =
In the specifications for RMFF, a flag parameter is available in the =
Properties header that signals PN_SAVE_ENABLED, PN_PERFECT_PLAY_ENABLED =
and PN_LIVE_BROADCAST.
     My application is a streaming container system that uses access =
control through encryption and proprietary authentication.  At present, =
it will containerize all content I have tried so far, except =
Sure-Stream, for obvious reasons and encrypt on the fly as it is =
streamed out or encrypt it to disk in my FileFormat plug-in.  This works =
OK on the server, or containerizer side but doesn't work if I try to do =
it in the Renderer on the client side.  Reason being that there is only =
one of my FileFormat plug-ins loaded for an entire presentation but =
possible multiple Renderers loaded on the client side with no good =
method for collecting the data from individual instances.
     Is there a way of my FileFormat plug-in turning recording on and off =
so that I can have the client side and it's IRMAPacketHook do all the =
work?
