# Definition of the live feeds. Each live feed contains one video
# and/or audio sequence coming from an ffmpeg encoder or another
# ffserver. This sequence may be encoded simultaneously with several
# codecs at several resolutions.

<Feed feed1.ffm>

# You must use 'ffmpeg' to send a live feed to ffserver. In this
# example, you can type:
# 
# ffmpeg http://localhost:8090/feed1.ffm

# ffserver can also do time shifting. It means that it can stream any
# previously recorded live stream. The request should contain:
# "http://xxxx?date=[YYYY-MM-DDT][[HH:]MM:]SS[.m...]".You must specify
# a path where the feed is stored on disk. You also specify the
# maximum size of the feed (100M bytes here). Default:
# File=/tmp/feed_name.ffm FileMaxSize=5M

File /tmp/feed1.ffm
FileMaxSize 50M

# Now you can define each stream which will be generated from the
# original audio and video stream. Each format has a filename (here
# 'test128.mpg'). FFServer will send this stream when answering a
# request containing this filename.

<Stream test1.mpg>

# coming from live feed 'feed1'
Feed feed1.ffm

# Format of the stream : you can choose among:
# mpeg       : MPEG1 multiplexed video and audio
# mpegvideo  : only MPEG1 video
# mp2        : MPEG audio layer 2
# mp3        : MPEG audio layer 3 (currently sent as layer 2)
# rm         : Real Networks compatible stream. Multiplexed audio and video.
# ra         : Real Networks compatible stream. Audio only.
# mpjpeg     : Multipart JPEG (works with Netscape without any plugin)
# jpeg       : Generate a single JPEG image.
# asf        : ASF compatible stream (Windows Media Player format). Not finished yet.
# swf        : Macromedia flash(tm) compatible stream
# avi        : AVI format (open divx video, mpeg audio sound)
# master     : special ffmpeg stream used to duplicate a server
