vingester FFmpeg (RTMP, SRT)

I've tried the current version of VIngester (WIndows 10) and I've not managed to send neither RTMP nor SRT.

I haven't found the FFmpeg console output for more specific errors.

I've not tried FFmpeg output for some time myself, so I've to check this.

I can confirm that FFmpeg support is currently broken. I'm also not able to record or stream with FFmpeg. I'm already debugging it, but it looks strange: FFmpeg is started and gets data, but doesn't write or stream anything. I've to dig deeper...

Ok, I've already found out an issue: if the FFmpeg configuration has an audio stream, but the Web content does not deliver any audio, FFmpeg waits forever for the interleaved audio fragments and as a result does not write anything at all. By disabling the audio streams (OUTPUT 2 / Headless / AUDIO / Channels: 0) FFmpeg correctly seems to work.

Ok, the FFmpeg support will be now fixed in the new Vingester 2.8.0. Please re-open this issue if you still have problems with FFmpeg even in this or higher versions.

I'm still having issues with ffmpeg. Vingester becomes unresponsive after activating ffmpeg.

This problem is under Windows?

Yes, I'm running the app on Windows 10.

I've currently no more Windows 10 available, but under my Windows 11 PC where I do regular Vingester tests, your exact configuration worked just fine and did not made Vingester unresponsive (at least with the latest snapshot from HEAD):

Hmmm...

Oh, I at least see one part of your problem: when I try to stop the browser, it does not stop and I have to stop it twice. So, yes, there is something under Windows which I do not see under macOS (where I develop Vingester). I've to investigate further...
