I have an application that acts as an edge server for an FMIS live stream.

In order to prevent bad data and timeout problems when clients first connect to the edge instance (when the instance hasn’t yet started), I’m waiting for the first audio or video packet to come in from the origin before accepting the RTP / HTTP session.

This works fine for RTSP, but if a cupertino stream client is the first to connect, the HTTPStreamer times out. The error I get in the log is:

HTTPStreamerAdapterCupertinoStreaming.service: Request timeout: 8000

Is there any way I can programatically adjust that timeout in my module?
