When streaming via RTSP, a single VOD recording file is created.
What I want is to send a 30-minute stream via RTSP, creating one 30-minute recording file and six 5-minute split files.
In other words, I want to record twice.
After configuration, I want one full VOD file and multiple 5-minute (or 30-second) split files to be created per streaming session.
Is this possible?
I believe with the recording methods that an be turned on via configuration you can get one recording per stream. Via the Java API it should be do-able to send a stream to multiple recorders to achieve what you are saying.
If you don’t need the smaller recordings right away, it would be pretty straightforward to fire up a tools (ex. ffmpeg) at the longer recording and split it into shorter VODs.
Thank you for your reply.
I’m trying to work on the VOD file during recording, but I can’t process it until the recording finishes.
When I stream via RTSP, I want to create two recordings.
So I set up two streams: the original and a transcoded one.
The original is the full VOD recording.
The transcoded one is for 30-second segmented VOD recordings.
I’m not sure how to do this.
Wowza can chime in here, but I believe its one recording per input stream. (At least if you are configuring it– there are definitely ways to do this with custom code)
Thank you for your reply.
I’m looking into ways to do it.
