[Live-devel] Streaming from multiple "live" files

[Ross Finlayson]

> In one of our project, we are capturing live video and transcoding it into small video clips of 4 seconds each. So, each 4 seconds, the current recording clip is closed and a new one is created (h264 in MP4 container). Of course, the old clips (ie let's say from a few days ago) are automatically deleted. This "video splitting feature" is mandatory for our project, mainly for fast indexing and video extraction.

Unfortunately you can’t do this with the LIVE555 code, because it currently doesn’t include a demultiplexor for ‘MP4’-format files.

Instead, if you have a way of generating Matroska (i.e., ‘.mkv’ or ‘.webm’) files, then the LIVE555 code could stream those.
