• ffmpeg in child process doesn't exit when parent closes pipe

  28 mars 2013, par user2221129

  This code snippet is from a pthread process. It is responsible for reading configuration/options to pass to ffmpeg. The data piped to ffmpeg is coming in on a ring buffer of video frames (as a proof of concept, in the final implementation these would be coming from a camera device). The parent writes to the child via a pipe established with dup2. The problem I'm having is that most of the time, the ffmpeg process doesn't seem to recognize the pipe has been closed by the parent (as strace shows the ffmpeg is in read). There are probably some unhandled mutex situations.

  I've embedded comments and questions in the thread's parent code after the frame buffer read/write loop.

  Hope I've provided enough detail - stackoverflow posting noob ! Thank you.
