My apologies for cross-posting, I was unaware that there was an
actual list for ffserver- I have been a subscriber to ffmpeg-user
for some time, but only for reference and to learn new tricks with
ffmpeg so I haven't actually posted before.<br>
<br>
I got back to an old project I've been fiddling with for some time
now, but ffserver doesn't appear to be doing so well now. I've run
some updates, new platform, and new platform versions and I've done
ok until now.
<br>
<br>
When I first kicked ffserver off it refused to bind to the network
at all, after some retries, searching through confs, it worked- not
sure what the failure was after all that.
<br>
<br>
When I started sending data to the server using ffmpeg I get the
following error:
<br>
<br>
av_interleaved_write_frame(): Connection reset by peer
<br>
<br>
My data is gstreamer pipelined dvb stream with ffmpeg splitting and
processing to mpegts output, although I have another method which
essentially has the same result anyway- gstreamer drops the pipe
when the buffers fill because ffmpeg doesn't take the data from the
pipe. Cmd is as follows:
<br>
<br>
gst-launch dvbsrc adapter=1 frequency=xxxxxxxx modulation="QAM 64"
bandwidth=7 guard=16 ! queue ! fdsink | ffmpeg -i - -f mpegts -vsync

<br>
<br>
If I output to file it all goes beautifully.
<br>
<br>
Does anyone have any clues on this? Any help would be much
appreciated.
<br>
<br>
I also could use some help as to where the logs are going as well?
<br>
<br>
Cheers
