[FFserver-user] ffserver - can't access the outgoing stream

[Victor Petrescu]

Good day to all. I have a rather odd problem.

I configurated a ffserver and tried to used it to stream something from a
pipe:

The commands were:

#mkfifo pipe.avi
#ffserver &
#ffmpeg -i pipe.avi -r 24 http://localhost:8090/feed1.ffm
#mplayer -dumpstream rtp://192.168.1.8:5004 -dumpfile pipe.avi (in another
terminal this one)

All worked fine for a while (except some little problems that don't bother
me any more) but now I can't see the stream (in a browser that embed the
result of the ffserver -> a swf).

To be more specific:
There are no errors (except this one [mpeg2video @
0x9094660]mpeg_decode_postinit() failure -> but I also got this error when
it was working good and it doesn't stop at it), the streaming start,
everything looks fine.

When I try to access it sometimes it works on at most 2 computers, sometimes
it does not work at all. The idea is to work on about 100 computers so the
"maybe works on 2 computers" is not really a solution.

The ffserver.conf is:

Port 8090

BindAddress 0.0.0.0

MaxHTTPConnections 200

MaxClients 200

MaxBandwidth 100000

CustomLog -

NoDaemon

<Feed feed1.ffm>

File /tmp/feed1.ffm
FileMaxSize 16484
ACL allow 127.0.0.1 192.168.1.2

</Feed>

<Stream test.swf>
Feed feed1.ffm
Format swf
VideoFrameRate 24
VideoSize 480x352
VideoBitRate 5000
PreRoll 0
StartSendOnKey
</Stream>

I'm sorry if I didn't describe the problem clearly (my English is not so
good)... for any clarifications just ask :)

Thank you for your time,
Victor
