180	ffmpeg and ffserver different builds interraction	andrixnet		"First an end user question : has ffserver behaviour changed '''by design''' since ffmpeg-0.5 ? 

Since having problems with the latest ffserver, I build 0.7-rc1. 

Using : 
ffmpeg (on a win32)
FFmpeg version SVN-r25857, Copyright (c) 2000-2010 the FFmpeg developers
  built on Dec  1 2010 04:07:58 with gcc 4.4.2
and 
ffserver 0.7-rc1 (on linux)
results in : 
{{{
HTTP error 404 Not Found
http://xxxxxxx:8090/feed1.ffm: Input/output error
}}}
and in the logs : 
{{{
Mon May  9 16:38:37 2011 File '/feed1.ffm' not found
Mon May  9 16:38:37 2011 10.1.1.10 - - [GET] ""/feed1.ffm HTTP/1.1"" 404 149
}}}


----

I was also unable to use the same ffmpeg and ffserver 0.5 with the error ""operation not permitted"". (no, not a firewall issue).

Then I tried ffmpeg (on win32)
FFmpeg version SVN-r20428, Copyright (c) 2000-2009 Fabrice Bellard, et al.
  built on Nov  1 2009 04:03:50 with gcc 4.2.4
with ffserver 0.5 (linux) 
and it worked.


----

then I did a new test with the latest win32 build : 
ffmpeg version git-N-29638-g95f163b, Copyright (c) 2000-2011 the FFmpeg developers
  built on May  6 2011 12:50:01 with gcc 4.5.3
with ffserver-0.7-rc1
and got : 
[http @ 01E78D60] HTTP error 404 Not Found
http://xxxxxxx:8090/feed1.ffm: Input/output error


----
I am not sure what aspects are to be considered ? 

1) different versions for ffmpeg and ffserver should work, regardless of the build and/or platform
2) if the ffserver api has changed since ffmpeg-0.5 time, ffmpeg should report to the user a version incompatibility error message
3) if 2) is not the case, then it is indeed a bug ffmpeg being unable to talk to ffserver
