Good day to all. I have a virtual machine running centOS 5.5 that I use as a streaming server.
Now... if I open 4 terminals and do this: terminal 1: # mkfifo pipe1.avi # mkfifo pipe2.avi # ffserver & # ffmpeg -probesize 164000 -i pipe1.avi -async 1 -r 25 http://localhost:8090/feed1.ffm terminal 2: # ffmpeg -i pipe2.avi -async 1 -r 25 -vcodec flv -f flv somename.flv terminal 3: # mplayer -dumpstream rtp://someIp:somePort -dumpfile pipe1.avi terminal 4: # mplayer -dumpstream rtp://someIp:somePort -dumpfile pipe2.avi Everything is working great. No problems nowhere. Now I'm trying to make a script and run it from a cron. This is the script: ffserver & ffmpeg -probesize 164000 -i pipe1.avi -async 1 -r 25 http://localhost:8090/feed1.ffm & ffmpeg -i pipe2.avi -async 1 -r 25 -vcodec flv -f flv somename.flv & mplayer -dumpstream rtp://someIp:somePort -dumpfile pipe1.avi & mplayer -dumpstream rtp://someIp:somePort -dumpfile pipe2.avi & exit 0 The crontab line is: 10 * * * * script.sh > /dev/null 1>&2 The problem is that when the cron is runned the system crashes (actually I not really crashes the stream (witch I see from another computer) is working perfectly but I can't do anything on the machine. The screen becomes black and I can't do anything except to restart it). I have a script that kills the anterior processes. If I uses it the stream stops, but I still don't regain access to the system (same black screeen whatever I do). Can any1 help me with this? Thank you.
