[Live-devel] save the live video to local video

[Ross Finlayson]

> Howerver, for example, phone A start  to live at time 00:00:00, phone B start to play the video at   00:10:00, that cause the test.ts file only save the ts packets from 00:10:00, the before 10 minites packets lost

That's correct.  The server doesn't start reading from the stream's input source until the first client requests the stream.

If you want the server to start saving data immediately, then immediately after you start up the server, you could start up a client - perhaps one that's running on the same computer as the server - that reads from the stream.  In fact, you could then make this client be the thing that saves the incoming data into a file.  If you do that, then you won't need to add any duplication/file saving code to your server (which is a bit of an ugly hack anyway).

Because you're deleting the file while it's still open (and being written by the server).
