Hello. This is my first post to the list. I've done some research about what I'm trying to accomplish but, can't really find the correct answer to my problem:
I'm trying to configure a ffserver to stream feeds and files locally but, first I'm trying to get it to work with files. I have hundreds of videos on a server I would like to watch on my tv and smartphones at different quality and rates since bandwidth could be an issue. How can I have clients use specific amount of bandwidth for each stream, for example I would like to make clients not to use more than 1024Kbit/s. If I have four clients watching a stream that would be each 1024, 4 x 1024 = 4096 TOTAL. Does this type of "shaping" needs to be configured the os side or simply by assigning a max bit rate: Here's what I try doing in my ffserver.conf: <Stream video.sdp> > Format rtp > File "/root/videos/video1.mp4" > AudioBitRate 96 > AudioSampleRate 44100 > VideoBitRate 1024 > VideoFrameRate 30 > VideoCodec libx264 > > VideoCodec libx264 > VideoSize 720x480 > AVOptionVideo crf 23 > AVOptionVideo flags +global_header > Preroll 15 > </Stream> The video's specs are as follow: Input #0, mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2, from 'videos/video1.mp4': > Metadata: > major_brand : mp42 > minor_version : 0 > compatible_brands: isommp42 > creation_time : 2013-11-26 23:10:14 > Duration: 01:27:39.02, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 3035 kb/s > Stream #0:0(und): Video: h264 (High) (avc1 / 0x31637661), yuv420p, > 1280x720, 2840 kb/s, 25 fps, 25 tbr, 50 tbn, 50 tbc (default) > Metadata: > handler_name : VideoHandler > Stream #0:1(und): Audio: aac (LC) (mp4a / 0x6134706D), 44100 Hz, > stereo, fltp, 192 kb/s (default) > Metadata: > creation_time : 2013-11-26 23:15:21 > handler_name : IsoMedia File Produced by Google, 5-11-2011 The ffserver.conf does not work, I checked the server bw consumption or traffic with iptraf and is over 6M. Am I doing something wrong? Please guide me to where I can find more info to correct my problem. Thanks in advanced for your time and guidance. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user
