Streaming to YouTube Live

[Peter Maersk-Moller]

Hi.

A little update on using GStreamer to generate a live stream for YouTube
Live. Using the following information, the pipeline gets a little bit
further.

     .... ! flvmux streamable=true name=mux ! rtmpsink location="$LOCATION"

Here LOCATION is now defined as follows

    LOCATION="Primary Server URL/Stream Name live=1
flashver=FME/3.0\20(compatible;\20FMSc\201.0) "

Primary Server URL and Stream Name is copied from the settings from the
live event created for the YouTube account.

Nevertheless the script now fails with the following message after
apparently setting up communication with the YouTube servers.

   Pipeline is PREROLLED ...
   Setting pipeline to PLAYING ...
   New clock: GstSystemClock
   ERROR: WriteN, RTMP send error 104 (126 bytes)

Anybody know what that is?

Best regards
