Hi there, Updated patch. Please let me know if there are any other changes needed.
I meant FFmpeg version 2.4, by "2.4 level". In case Daemon mode is made default, and user launches FFserver in debug mode, in that case, FFserver would be prevented from forking, forcing foreground mode. I am not sure about why daemon mode was removed. More information on re-enabling daemon mode can be obtained from below link: https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/3731 Thanks, Binathi On Tue, Nov 11, 2014 at 6:02 PM, Stefano Sabatini <stefa...@gmail.com> wrote: > On date Tuesday 2014-11-11 00:19:26 +0530, Binathi Bingi encoded: > > Hi there, > > > > Please find the attached patch with modifications. > [...] > > From 091b4a02c9325bea32b7f745d028ea72c8e1537e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 > > From: Binathi Bingi <binti...@gmail.com> > > Date: Tue, 4 Nov 2014 21:42:07 +0530 > > Subject: [PATCH] Restore Daemon mode in FFserver > > > > Signed-off-by: Binathi Bingi <binti...@gmail.com> > > > > Author: Binathi Bingi <binti...@gmail.com> > > --- > > doc/ffserver.conf | 4 ++++ > > doc/ffserver.texi | 11 +++++++---- > > ffserver.c | 34 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > > ffserver_config.c | 4 ++-- > > ffserver_config.h | 1 + > > 5 files changed, 48 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) > > > > diff --git a/doc/ffserver.conf b/doc/ffserver.conf > > index b756961..a017b3c 100644 > > --- a/doc/ffserver.conf > > +++ b/doc/ffserver.conf > > @@ -25,6 +25,10 @@ MaxBandwidth 1000 > > # '-' is the standard output. > > CustomLog - > > > > +# Enable Daemon, to launch FFserver in Daemon mode. > > +# For NoDaemon mode, suppress Daemon. > > +#Daemon > > + > > ################################################################## > > # Definition of the live feeds.
