Hi all, as my understanding, ffserver and ffmpeg use tcp socket to communicate with each other.
is it possible to use global buffer for communication? because both ffserver and ffmpeg are user space process, if use tcp socket to do communication, then all data have to go through a normal network path , such that ffserver can get the video data or audio data . it seems take a redundant effort to transfer data from ffmpeg to ffserver. for example: in video case, ffmpeg read video data from usb webcam (that is the device in kernel space), then send the data via tcp socket to ffserver, then ffmpeg put the data into kernel space, in advance, ffserver receive the data from tcp socket (the buffer is in user space), the data has been transfered for a long path!!!!! Does anyone have ideas? Thanks! Soho _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list [email protected] http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user
