Hello, I am trying to setup an SRT server. First, we are dealing with live continuos streams, not files. I can get the connection setup easily enough and move the streams fine.
I am grabbing a UDP multicast stream from one site and uploading to another site. Output at remote site is UDP. The transmitting server is setup as the listener with the remote server as the caller. I am running into 2 issues. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. When setting up the connection, the listener side starts having circular buffer overruns if the caller doesn't connect within the first few seconds of the listener being started. I added overrun_nonfatal but found that even after the caller connects, the listener is still in an overrun state. Is there a way to purge the buffer once an overrun is reached? I simply want the stream to be available whenever the caller "dials in". So the listener should be available 24x7 even if the caller is offline for a few hours. ====Output from the listener showing this problem: user@hostname:~$ ffmpeg -fflags +genpts -re -i 'udp://x.x.x.x:xxxxx?overrun_nonfatal=1' -acodec copy -vcodec copy -strict -2 -y -f mpegts 'srt://y.y.y.y:yyyypkt_size=1316&mode=listener&passphrase=xxxxxxxxxxxx&pbkeylen=32' ffmpeg version N-95534-gac0f5f4 Copyright (c) 2000-2019 the FFmpeg developers built with gcc 7 (Ubuntu 7.4.0-1ubuntu1~18.04.1) configuration: --prefix=/home/circle/ffmpeg_build --pkg-config-flags=--static --extra-cflags=-I/home/circle/ffmpeg_build/include --extra-ldflags=-L/home/circle/ffmpeg_build/lib --extra-libs='-lpthread -lm' --bindir=/home/circle/bin --enable-libsrt --enable-gpl --enable-libass --enable-libfdk-aac --enable-libfreetype --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libvorbis --enable-libx264 --enable-libx265 --enable-nonfree libavutil 56. 35.101 / 56. 35.101 libavcodec 58. 59.102 / 58. 59.102 libavformat 58. 33.100 / 58. 33.100 libavdevice 58. 9.100 / 58. 9.100 libavfilter 7. 64.100 / 7. 64.100 libswscale 5. 6.100 / 5. 6.100 libswresample 3. 6.100 / 3. 6.100 libpostproc 55. 6.100 / 55. 6.100 [mpeg2video @ 0x563bb1a8fa00] Invalid frame dimensions 0x0.
