Hello, I've written a couple of messages last couple of days, and I'd say for now ignore them.
I've been doing a lot of testing with many different configurations and honestly I'm pretty lost on how to get this working... I'm running a simple test... I'm simulating a live stream by reading a file with ffmpeg and feeding it to ffserver. The file I have is mp4 with h264 and aac. I want to be able to play it within an HTML5 <video> object by accessing via http from ffserver. So my first question... is this even possible, within <video> object and http? What would be the appropriate ffserver config and ffmpeg command line? My current command line to feed ffserver is: $ ffmpeg -re -i sample.mp4 -c copy http://localhost:8090/feed1.ffm ffmpeg version 2.6.git Copyright (c) 2000-2015 the FFmpeg developers built with gcc 4.8 (Ubuntu 4.8.2-19ubuntu1) configuration: --prefix=/home/ubuntu/ffmpeg_build --pkg-config-flags=--static --extra-cflags=-I/home/ubuntu/ffmpeg_build/include --extra-ldflags=-L/home/ubuntu/ffmpeg_build/lib --bindir=/home/ubuntu/bin --enable-gpl --enable-libass --enable-libfdk-aac --enable-libfreetype --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libopus --enable-libtheora --enable-libvorbis --enable-libvpx --enable-libx264 --enable-libx265 --enable-nonfree libavutil 54. 23.101 / 54. 23.101 libavcodec 56. 35.101 / 56. 35.101 libavformat 56. 31.100 / 56. 31.100 libavdevice 56. 4.100 / 56. 4.100 libavfilter 5. 16.100 / 5. 16.100 libswscale 3. 1.101 / 3. 1.101 libswresample 1. 1.100 / 1. 1.100 libpostproc 53. 3.100 / 53. 3.100 Input #0, mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2, from 'sample.mp4': Metadata: major_brand : qt minor_version : 512 compatible_brands: qt creation_time : 1970-01-01 00:00:00 encoder : Lavf52.73.0 Duration: 00:09:56.46, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 524 kb/s Stream #0:0(eng): Video: h264 (Constrained Baseline) (avc1 / 0x31637661), yuv420p, 424x240, 420 kb/s, 24 fps, 24 tbr, 24 tbn, 48 tbc (default) Metadata: creation_time : 1970-01-01 00:00:00 handler_name : DataHandler encoder : libx264 Stream #0:1(eng): Audio: aac (LC) (mp4a / 0x6134706D), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 99 kb/s (default) Metadata: creation_time : 1970-01-01 00:00:00 handler_name : DataHandler [libx264 @ 0x2379000] using cpu capabilities: MMX2 SSE2Fast SSSE3 SSE4.2 AVX [libx264 @ 0x2379000] profile High, level 2.1 [libx264 @ 0x2379000] 264 -

Again, is this doable with ffserver and HTML5? All the combinations I tried, the HTML5 video window simply returned "No video with supported format and MIME type found" If it is possible to do this in HTML5 <video> what would the appropriate ffserver config be? If not possible then do I need to use a player like flowplayer? Any help is appreciated. thank you Ricardo _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user
