httpd playlist download not always replacing string values in URL

Hi,
I've set httpd://playlistserver/wmedia/playlist.php?userid=%UserID%&userip=%UserIP%&%QueryString%&filename= as source/location for an on-demand publishing point.
The script dynamically generates playlists for each user, depending on the querystring that is passed to the player and on the user's IP address and User ID.
This works fine when a player first connects and starts streaming. The script is called with all parameters replaced by actual values. Pausing and resuming works fine as well. When the user presses stop and play however, the same script is called without any replacements being done. I.e. the script parameters contain literal %UserIP%, %UserID% and %QueryString% strings.
I noticed that the player doesn't disconnect when the user presses stop. The same RTSP session is used for restarting the stream and there seems to be no difference in information exchanged between the player and server for the start and restart cases. This leads me to believe that this is a server problem.
Is this a known problem? Are there any workarounds? I'd appreciate any help.
Regards,
Fred.
