ffmpeg network streaming

[lusky]

Hello!

I want to something like this:
ffmpeg -i http://localhost:1234 -vcodec mpeg2video -b 2000k -acodec ac3 -ab 128k -f mpegts output.ts

So the thing is following. I have a webcam (CANYON CNR-WCAM420) which I stream to the network with vlc and then pick it up with ffmpeg and transcode it to a .ts file like I wrote in the example.
And now I want to stream the transcodec transport stream again to the network, something like this ffmpeg -i http://localhost:1234 -vcodec mpeg2video -b 2000k -acodec ac3 -ab 128k -f mpegts http://localhost:1235 or UDP, RTP or something else. So can I stream a hole day to the network and no file will create on my computer which will rise and rise.

Hope you understand me what I mean. If not post me again and I will explain it again. I realy need this working

Hi Lusky,

I want to do almost the same stuff, have you been able to achieve this in some way ?

[lusky]

Yes. For me works like this.

-i http://localhost:1234 -vcodec mpeg2video -b 2000k -acodec mp2 -ab 128k -f mpegts udp://127.0.0.1:1235

Hope it will help you

I think it is the same way as for http -i rtsp://localhost:1234. I don't know so exactly if it will work, but one way is that you make some maps -map 0:1 like this. In which you can put diferent audio and video files. The maps you must inserd betwen -ab 128k - map 1:0........ -f mpegts.
