FFmpeg with librtmp: some RTMP streams are not played and causes the app to freeze

[waninkoko]

Hello,

From a long time I have been compiling FFmpeg with librtmp (even when Vitamio didn't have support for librtmp).

With some RTMP streams I'm experimenting an issue that's giving me a headache. Vitamio initializes correctly, but the video-audio stream is never played. When I finish the player activity, my app just freezes with a black screen and I have to kill its process.

This is the logcat I get when trying to play the stream:

I cannot give the stream URL as it's current unavailable. About the stream, I can say the video was in H264 and the audio in MP3, nothing special.

Thank you in advance.

My mistake. I was calling to seekTo(0) and that caused all the problems.

Anyway, if the RTMP stream is not being received (for any reason) and we close the activity, the app will freeze and crash.

Vitamio use FFmpeg internal rtmp, but you can compile ffmpeg with librtmp yourself. Maybe we can support librtmp next version.

@deepakvvdn dont scribble your issue.

@waninkoko hi man, I am a long time trying to compile my own version, I could share with me your version (sourcecode) so I can compile with the librtmp? (arm, x86, mips)

Thank you for your attention sorry for bothering
