I am trying to stream my webcam video using the ffmpeg to wowza media server on linux..
ffmpeg -re -f video4linux2 -i /dev/video0 -acodec libfacc -vcodec libx264 -f h264 rtmp://localhost:1935/live/test
This is the command I used for some reason it doesn’t seem to work as I am not able to run the example that came with wowza. I tried using flash media live encoder to send a rtmp to my wowza server and it works.
Any pointers on how to solve this problem.
I build ffmpeg from their git repo with the following config
--enable-gpl --enable-libfaac --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libopencore-amrnb --enable-libopencore-amrwb --enable-libtheora --enable-libvorbis --enable-libx264 --enable-nonfree --enable-postproc --enable-version3 --enable-x11grab
ffmpeg -protocols says it has rtmp input/output support
With these build options my FFMPEG build does receive and decode rtsp streams
–enable-network –enable-protocol=tcp –enable-demuxer=rtsp –enable-decoder=h264
I have answered a similar question here FFMPEG API: How to connect to RTSP stream using av_open_input_file?
