[Live-devel] Loop Streaming File to Live

[Ross Finlayson]

> I'm trying to figure out a method to loop stream a file continuously as a Live Stream over RTMP/RTSP.

We don't have anything to do with RTMP (that's a proprietary protocol).  Perhaps you meant RTP

But anyway, 'loop streaming' a file is not something that we support directly.  You would need to write your own data source class (a subclass of "FramedSource") that did this.  Note, however, that you didn't say what kind of file you want to stream.  You couldn't do this for a Transport Stream file, for example, because it contains its own timestamp (PCR) information, which would be incorrect when you read the file a second (etc.) time - unless you explicitly changed the PCR timestamps each time.
