Hi, thank you for your reply:
What I am trying to do: a. copy the file in realtime ? So, ffmpeg would be rewriting file1.ts into file2.ts as file1.ts is constantly being written into. b. tell ffmpeg to read the file with a constant 3 second delay from the most updated frame? c. if a new file appears, detect it and switch to it? My existing solution of using -re and -sseof has several disadvantages: 1. if use -sseof and -re together, I am missing the beginning of the file 2. if use only -re, then I need to launch ffmpeg few seconds after the new file is created otherwise I would be constantly hours behind. 3. I am sure there are a lot of other issues that I am not seeing What is OS? TS files are written on Windows 10 64 bit What language the program is written in? The program is written in GNU C++ (GCC) , but we can either use the library of if there is a way to do it from MSDOS shell - even better! Thank you!

What O/S are you working with? This is relevant to the buffered input and output when reading from stdin and writing to stdout. What language are you writing your script/program in? This is relevant to what capabilities your tool will have access to.
