I'm looking for a way to have FFserver automatically save the current stream to a file locally. I have a server setup with Ubuntu 12 that has FFserver on it, we stream to it from our classroom using FFmpeg.
This all works fine, but what I want is for it to do the stream out but at the same time save it to a local file. I would love to be able to name and date that file also, but I can think of something else if not.
My current config is:
Port 8090
BindAddress IP
MaxHTTPConnections 30
MaxClients 20
MaxBandwidth 2000
CustomLog -
<Feed cam1.ffm>
File /tmp/cam1.ffm
FileMaxSize 10000K
</Feed>
<Stream cam1.flv>
Feed cam1.ffm
Format flv
VideoCodec flv
VideoFrameRate 10
VideoBufferSize 20000
VideoBitRate 200
VideoQMin 5
VideoQMax 10
VideoSize qvga
PreRoll 0
#Noaudio
AVOptionVideo flags +global_header
AVOptionAudio flags +global_header
</Stream>
<Stream stat.html>
Format status
</Stream>
I read through the documentation but nothing jumped out at me to do this. I thought maybe if there was a way to have FFServer run a script when input connects that would be even better because I think I can run ffplay or another program to grab the stream directly to an FLV file through the script it calls.
I just can't find anyway to have FFserver launch a script when input connects. Unless of course there's another way.
