• Is no signal in live stream a subtitle if yes then how to read it ? [on hold]

  14 mars 2017, par A Sahra

  I am streaming live from an rtsp source link using ffmpeg,in someways i get no signal text in my video,my question is,is that view a subtitle in my video or it’s a single frame showing when there is no video stream ? i am doing this because when i don’t have video from source and the message pops up i want to stop streaming there ? by reading (no signal) subtitle,if that is not the case so how do i stop streaming when there is no video coming from source and how to do it by using ffprobe.

• suggestions for using protocol to stream images

  10 décembre 2013, par Abdul Ali

  The target is that a user sends a stream of images to a server. The server should forward those to a media server for showing as a live continuous video to clients.

  following are the thought for implementing, kindly tell if they are ok.

  Use a lightweight rtmp server to accept stream of images from a user (please suggest if this is even possible via rtmp and if it cab be easiy and efficiently done otherwise)

  use ffmpeg to use the rtmp (or other) url as input and send those images to ffserver for streaming. (am also confused here, if ffserver is fed with images continuosly, can it show those images as video as long as the images are coming)

• Stream video from ffmpeg and capture with OpenCV

  10 décembre 2014, par chembrad

  I have a video stream coming in on rtp to ffmpeg and I want to pipe this to my OpenCV tools for live streaming processing. The rtp linkage is working because I am able to send the incoming data to a file and play it (or play if via ffplay). My OpenCV implementation is functional as well because I am able to capture video from a file and also a webcam.

  The problem is the streaming to OpenCV. I have heard that this may be done using a named pipe. First I could stream the ffmpeg output to the pipe and then have OpenCV open this pipe and begin processing.

  What I’ve tried :

  I make a named-pipe in my cygwin bash by :

      $ mkfifo stream_pipe

  Next I use my ffmpeg command to pull the stream from rtp and send it to the pipe :

      $ ffmpeg -f avi -i rtp://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1234 -f avi -y out.avi > stream_pipe

  I am not sure if this is the right way to go about sending the stream to the named pipe but it seems to be accepting the command and work because of the output from ffmpeg gives me bitrates, fps, and such.

  Next I use the named pipe in my OpenCV capture function :

      $ ./cvcap.exe stream_pipe

  where the code for cvcap.cpp boils down to this :

      cv::VideoCapture *pIns = new cv::VideoCapture(argv[1]);

  The program seems to hang when reaching this one line, so, I am wondering if this is the right way of going about this. I have never used named pipes before and I am not sure if this is the correct usage. In addition, I don’t know if I need to handle the named pipe differently in OpenCV—change code around to accept this kind of input. Like I said, my code already accepts files and camera inputs, I am just hung up on a stream coming in. I have only heard that named pipes can be used for OpenCV—I haven’t seen any actual code or commands !

  Any help or insights are appreciated !

  UPDATE :

  I believe named pipes may not be working in the way I intended. As seen on this cygwin forum post :

  The problem is that Cygwin’s implementation of fifos is very buggy. I wouldn’t recommend using fifos for anything but the simplest of applications.

  I may need to find another way to do this. I have tried to pipe the ffmpeg output into a normal file and then have OpenCV read it at the same time. This works to some extent, but I imagine in can be dangerous to read and write from a file concurrently—who knows what would happen !
