FFmpeg strange behaviour about bbb-recorder HOT 8 CLOSED

Can you help me with this?

No, you missed to read that section

Note: If you do nothing in meeting room that time ffmpeg may exit with error & will try to reconnect again. Actually I don't have much experience on ffmpeg to resolve those problems. Please contribute your experience.

Thank you for reply.
I added -vcodec and other flags (substitute them with -c:v and -c:a and others) and ffmpeg start streaming, so i don't think this is an ffmpeg issue.

What do you mean exactly with "If you do nothing"? How can i "do something" in the room bt using bbb-recorder?

Thank you.

The presenter should do something. Better to keep webcam on.

I confirm that during tests the presenter was active on webcam and also a presentation was on, but nothing changed on the bbb-recorder's behaviour, unfortunately.

We are using this solution almost everyday for 3~4 clients to live broadcast in YouTube. We didn't face any serious problem so far.

Ok, thank you.
Sorry for bothering you, i'm not assuming that the recorder does not work, i'm sure it will.

May I ask you what FFmpeg version are you running? Also, are there any other dependencies needed except ones in the Readme?

from bbb-recorder.

I am using same version that BBB is providing.

ffmpeg version 4.2.2-1bbb1~ubuntu16.04 Copyright (c) 2000-2019 the FFmpeg developers
  built with gcc 5.4.0 (Ubuntu 5.4.0-6ubuntu1~16.04.12) 20160609

I am using the same configuration of ffmpeg of this repo. I saw if I am using -re flag that time having problem on YouTube. So, you can avoid to use it. Also I am using following extra options but require more CPU:

'-vcodec', 'libx264',
'-x264-params', 'keyint=120:scenecut=0',
'-af', 'highpass=f=200, lowpass=f=3000',

but do smooth publishing on YouTube.
