[Live-devel] H264VideoStreamer packets sending problems with live streaming

[Philippe Noël]

Hi,

I've been working on integrating live streaming of a Windows desktop
(captured through DirectX11 and encoded with Nvidia NvEnc) through
testH264VideoStreamer. Globally I've been able to connect them, but the
stream aborts pretty quickly and I found the following behavior:

Packets seem to be sent every 5 seconds and the frames are concatenated
instead of being sent and then flushed from memory (function doGetNextFrame
of H264or5VideoStreamFramer I believe). The problem I have with that is
that my screen capture + encoder captures one frame, encodes it and then
passes it to Live555 for streaming, and so I believe it would be better if
packets were sent at the same rate as encoding (60 FPS) and flushed from
memory right away. Am I missing something / is this a known issue with live
streaming from Live555? Help would be appreciated.

Cheers,
