Abstract
Systems and methods described herein relate to storing and replaying live streaming content. A content recording system may provide virtual manifests to a playback device. The virtual manifests may facilitate a simulation of live streaming of content at a time other than the live streaming. The virtual manifests may be modified versions of the manifests generated during the live streaming of the content. The manifest generation time and location indicators of the content segments are modified to resemble a live stream. If a playback device requests manifests for the live streaming content at a later time, the playback device can display the content at the later time as if the content is being streamed live. This may assist in quality assurance procedures for live stream content.
