Please take a look at this: https://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/libav-user/2017-February/010086.html It is a 5 line addition to libavformat/utils.c that adds an av_read_frame() I/O callback. I added this a few years ago to my local ffmpeg compile, tried to get it adopted by the official ffmpeg dev maintainers, but they felt it was (incorrectly, IMHO) too specific to streaming playback. My company uses this av_read_frame()callback to identify when a network stream unexpectedly terminates, often caused by someone turning off or tripping over a security camera cable. -Blake Senftner, geek. _______________________________________________ Libav-user mailing list [email protected] https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/libav-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email [email protected] with subject "unsubscribe".
