Hi! I've been playing around with ffmpeg/ffserver, but some things are bothering me 1) How do I get an application (let's say realplayer for .rm and MpegTV for mpeg1video) to actually think the stream is a _stream_ and not some file that's downloaded. At the moment the applications is clearly thinking it's downloading a file, buffers, it, play large chunks, halts, download some more, etc. - not very bright. I see realplayer has a real-time streaming protocol rtsp://..... - any ideas how that works. Would it be easy to change ffserver to use that instead? 2) MJPEG sucks in Netscape. It's flickering constantly. How do I get it to actually look like a video stream being played and not like a fast slideshow? 3) Anybody had any success with the DivX stuff? I can't get it to be recognised by any player. 4) What does the framerate option do? Whether I make it 10000 or 1, the stream still plays at the same (inconsistent rate) which is basically what I want (after all, it's streaming), but why is there a framerate option then? 5) Has anybody had any luck with the h.263 encoder in ffmpeg ? 6) Is anybody working on ffmpeg? The author seems to have disappeared completely. -- Regards Abraham We may not return the affection of those who like us, but we always respect their good judgement. ______________________________________________________ Abraham vd Merwe - 2d3D, Inc.
