I am running a simple command line stream on an Ubuntu box:
"cvlc dvb:// :dvb-adapter=0 --sout '#standard{access=http,mux=ogg,dst=10.10.1.83:8181}'"
I am running an http interface with default playlist on the same box (channels.conf)
The stream works perfectly when I launch a VLC player on a different box, after selecting a channel via the http interface. I can switch channels fine, no problem. However, anywhere from 5-30 minutes into the stream, it will stop. Clicking on the same, active channel, or a new one connects to the stream again. The behavior is the same over the LAN or internet.
(The box is not running out of resources)
Just wondering if there may be some sort of keep alive or another addition I can make to the config to keep the stream alive, without having to manually revive it via the playlist??
