I'm using multiple instances of ffplay, on a linux distro, to play multiple rtsp streams from multiple security cameras. However, due to the crowded wifi environment I'm in and the 2.4ghz limitations of the cameras, I occasionally drop / lose connection to one or more cameras, and thus lose the rtsp stream. Other than watching for motion or staring at the time display in the stream, to see if it's still "ticking", I have no way to know if the stream is active or not. Barring switching to a UDP rtsp stream (which provides for horrible video quality), is there a known, existing error message or process flag that I can filter on, to be made aware of the stream loss? I've seemingly tried every warning level, but I don't see a message alerting me to the stream drop. ffplay just keeps on ticking.
Currently, I am stuck with scripting a shutdown and restart of ffplay every 1/2 hour, for the most common "offenders", but I'm thinking that someone else must have crossed this bridge before, and resolved the issue. Anyone? -- Sent from: http://www.ffmpeg-archive.org/ _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-user-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
