Package: ffmpeg
Version: 7:3.2.12-1~deb9u1
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/ffserver

Dear Maintainer,

man ffserver

states:

   How do I make it work?

   As a simple test, just run the following two command lines where INPUTFILE is some file
   which you can decode with ffmpeg:

      ffserver -f doc/ffserver.conf &

      ffmpeg -i INPUTFILE http://localhost:8090/feed1.ffm

   At this point you should be able to go to your Windows machine and fire up Windows
   Media Player (WMP). Go to Open URL and enter

      http://<linuxbox>:8090/test.asf

   You should (after a short delay) see video and hear audio.

Please support free software clients as well.

Various free clients should already be able to play streams sent by
ffserver. The man page is just giving an example. In particular you
should be able to run ffplay on the above URL.

If you were not aware, ffserver was removed in ffmpeg 4.0 so there will
not be any more updates to it.

I'm closing the bug because I don't think it is actionable.
