Hi all!
I'm trying to create a timeshifted streaming server for our internal purposes. I have a live feed from TV card and I want a 24h timeshift buffer. My ffserver configuration follows: ----- 8< ---------- 8< ------------- 8< --------------- Port 8090 BindAddress 0.0.0.0 MaxHTTPConnections 2000 MaxClients 1000 MaxBandwidth 9000000 CustomLog - <Feed feed1.ffm> File /some/valid/path/to/feed1.ffm FileMaxSize 20G # This is roughly 24h of media ACL allow 127.0.0.1 Launch ffmpeg -i /some/valid/path/to/fifo/named/fifo.ts -timestamp now # "fifo.ts" file is fed by external program (mencoder... for some reason ffmpeg doesn't work with v4l) </Feed> <Stream status.html> Format status ACL allow localhost ACL allow 192.168.0.176 # Test client machine </Stream> <Stream test.asf> Feed feed1.ffm Format asf # Also tried mpegts AudioBitrate 128 AudioChannels 1 AudioSampleRate 44100 VideoBitrate 1024 VideoBufferSize 128 VideoFrameRate 25 VideoSize 640x480 VideoGopSize 12 AVOptionAudio flags +global_header AVOptionVideo flags +global_header AVOptionVideo me_range 16 AVOptionVideo qdiff 4 AVOptionVideo qmin 10 AVOptionVideo qmax 51 AVOptionVideo coder 0 AVOptionVideo bf 0 AVOptionVideo flags2 +mixed_refs+fastpskip AVOptionVideo flags +loop AVOptionVideo cmp +chroma AVOptionVideo partitions +parti8x8+parti4x4+partp8x8+partb8x8 AVOptionVideo me_method hex AVOptionVideo subq 7 AVOptionVideo g 250 AVOptionVideo keyint_min 10 AVOptionVideo sc_threshold 40 AVOptionVideo i_qfactor 0.71 AVOptionVideo b_strategy 1 AVOptionVideo qcomp 0.6 AVOptionVideo refs 3 AVOptionVideo directpred 1 AVOptionVideo trellis 1 AVOptionVideo flags2 +mixed_refs+fastpskip AVOptionVideo wpredp 0 AVOptionVideo bsf h264_mp4toannexb AudioCodec libmp3lame VideoCodec libx264 Preroll 15 StartSendOnKey </Stream> ----- 8< ---------- 8< ------------- 8< --------------- The playback (using any player) works great, but when I try to use timeshift (file "feed1.ffm" is filled) like this: player http://server:8090/test.asf?date=2012-09-13T10:00:00 or: player http://server:8090/test.asf?date=10:00:00 or: player http://server:8090/test.asf?date=20120913T10:00:00 the playback always starts at the current point in time, so timeshift does not work. However, it works without much hussle when streaming a static file. Does timeshifting in ffserver works with live streams? Is ffserver documentation up to date regarding timeshifting? What is the correct way to do this?
