#4893: FFmpeg stops outputting frames unexpectedly and indefinitely on "bad" h264 over UDP stream -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: superware | Type: defect Status: new | Priority: normal Component: | Version: undetermined | unspecified Keywords: udp h264 | Blocked By: stream stops | Reproduced by developer: 0 Blocking: | Analyzed by developer: 0 | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- FFmpeg stops outputting frames unexpectedly and indefinitely on "bad" h264 over UDP stream, it happens quite rarely on a wireless link. I've managed to reproduce by recording (pcap) and manipulating a stream by discarding every second packet, which causes the video to be played very badly. At 01:38 ffplay stops displaying frames (restarting ffplay plays the stream again). It is as if a specific packet/frame causes ffmpeg to enter a specific state from which it cannot recover.
How to reproduce: Play the attached pcap file on an active local network adapter with the IP 192.168.19.121. % ffplay -i udp://192.168.19.121:40002 Video starts at 0:27, issue occurs at 01:38. Tried on latest git, 2.7 and 2.5.2 (Windows). -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/4893> FFmpeg <https://ffmpeg.org> FFmpeg issue tracker _______________________________________________ FFmpeg-trac mailing list FFmpeg-trac@avcodec.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-trac
