Hi All,

regularly, on different forums and mailing lists a requirement popups for a
feature to automatically failover switching between main input and a
secondary input in case of main input unavailability.

The base motivation: let's say you have a unreliable live stream source and
you
want to transcode its video and audio streams in realtime but you
want to survive the ocasions when the source is unavailable. So use a
secondary live source but the transition should occur seamlessly without
breaking/re-starting the transcoding processs.

Some days ago there was a discussion on devel-irc about this topic and we
concluded that this feature is not feasible inside ffmpeg without "hacking",
but a separate client app could do this.

So I created this example app to handle two separate input sources and
switching realtime between them. I am not sure wheter it should be inside
the tools subdir.

The detailed description is available in the header section of the source
file.

I will appretiate your suggestions about it.

Thank you in advance.

best,

Bela Bodecs

You may want to add yourself to MAINTAINERS, so it is not unmaintained
ok
I think this is complex enough that it needs a maintainer


May I take your response as you agree to inlcude this as an example app?

i guess this was intended to be "!= NULL"
yes, I will fix it

also you are mixing EINVAL with AVERROR(ENOMEM) these arent compatible.
Either all should be AVERROR or none
ok, should I will modify EIVAL all of them to AVERROR(EINVAL)?


thx
