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:

2. When I kill the caller side ffmpeg process, the listener side exits ffmpeg 
as well.
Is there a way to make this survivable so the listener stays available?
