Description
Hi,
I'm playing BBC radio but recently the streams have started cutting out. Sometimes after a minute, sometimes things would run for 1 hour no issue, regardless, babysitting a live radio to keep it running is quite bothersome. The common thing I can see is that ffmpeg reports "[in#0/hls @ 0x0] EOF while reading input" at the end, but i'm completely at a loss why.
Would you be able to help me figure out whether it's ffmpeg being out of step somehow or the stream source is buggy?
How to reproduce:
Pick a BBC stream from radio.net and try playing it, e.g. BBC Radio 4, this is more or less what mplayer/mpv would run:
ffmpeg -report -v 9 -loglevel 99 -i https://a.files.bbci.co.uk/ms6/live/3441A116-B12E-4D2F-ACA8-C1984642FA4B/audio/simulcast/hls/nonuk/audio_syndication_low_sbr_v1/aks/bbc_radio_fourfm.m3u8 -vn -acodec copy -f mpegts pipe:1
Eventually, the stream ends. Is there a way (e.g. a switch) for ffmpeg to try harder?
Thanks
