So how should I modify the ffmpeg command to add a container? If I add "Format mp4" to the ffserver.conf file, that still doesn't fix it.. I think I understand what you're saying, but I'm not sure how to modify the ffmpeg command to make this work:
The command I use right now is: ffmpeg -f x11grab -r 25 -s 1920x1200 -i :0.0 -vcodec libx264 -vpre lossless_ultrafast -threads 0 -s 640x480 http://localhost:8090/feed1.ffm On Mon, Jan 17, 2011 at 11:06 PM, nandan amar <nandan.a...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > On 18 January 2011 12:25, Suneet Shah <sune...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> [Sorry for the double mail, accidentally hit tab + enter on the first >> one] >> >> Hello, >> >> I'm having issues trying to live stream H264 video with FFserver, and I'm >> hoping someone can help me out.
