This might not be the right forum for this question, but I am struggling for some days to get the right combination in ffserver.conf Could you please share the ffserver configuration file that you used?
I have tried using ffserver on Ubuntu 8.04 and get a sedmentation fault Using ffserver on the adb shell shows following "Could not open output feed file '/tmp/feed1.ffm.ffm'" error. All suggestions to resolve/work around this error are welcome :) Regards, Yadnesh On Jun 22, 7:02 am, Andy Savage <[email protected]> wrote: > *Hi Everyone,* > > This problem is *really* bugging me.
