 Summary of the bug:

 Recently installed ffmpeg on a new server (which provided me with a newer
 version).

 Old Version:
 ffmpeg version 3.0.2-4~bpo8+1 Copyright (c) 2000-2016 the FFmpeg
 developers
 built with gcc 4.9.2 (Debian 4.9.2-10)

 On the old version, the ffmpeg process would stop running if the RTMP
 stream ceased to publish. Event handlers in our automated software would
 detect this "end" and proceed to handle it as the code designates.

 In the new version, the ffmpeg continues to process and run indefinitely
 when the input ceases to exist. There also appears to be no way to suggest
 that the process SHOULD stop if the input ceases to exist. We have spent
 hours looking for a work-around but nothing is effective in stopping the
 process when an rtmp input ceases to publish.


 How to reproduce:
 {{{
 % /usr/bin/ffmpeg -hide_banner -nostdin -y -threads 2 -i rtmp://localhost
 /live-test/test -acodec aac -vcodec copy -f flv rtmp://localhost/live-
 push/test

 ffmpeg version 3.2.4-1~bpo8+1 Copyright (c) 2000-2017 the FFmpeg
 developers
 built with gcc 4.9.2 (Debian 4.9.2-10)

 }}}
