[FFmpeg-user] RTSP input source

[Sandeshwar Sharma]

Hi All,

I'm creating an output video file continuously from an input RTSP source
(cctv camera).

But when the camera is disconnected (for any reason) from the network,
ffmpeg takes a while (more than 1 minute) to throw an error.

I would like to know which ffmpeg args needs to be passed to change this
behaviour and detect the camera's disconnection as early as possible.

Command I'm using:
ffmpeg -stimeout 5000000 -i rtsp://192.168.0.200/stream0 -s 320x200 -f
mpegts -codec:v mpeg1video -stats: -r: 30 -an output.mp4

Thanks & Regards,
Sandeshwar Sharma
