input.rtmp not reading from rtmp remote source but opening rtmp service

[kessenza]

call input.rtmp is expected to work getting remote source from rtmp external source (like input.ffmpeg and input.http do) but instead it opens a rtmp service locally (like input.harbor does)

For instance if I have an ngnix with rtmp module running locally if I launch
input.rtmp("rtmp://my-local-ngnix/endpoint") it conflicts with existing open port managed by ngnix

If I stop ngnix the above script runs smoothly

I am running Liquidsoap 2.0.2 on Ubuntu 20 installed via opam

I have just added a parameter to allow to set input.rtmp as listener or client, it will be coming out with the 2.0.3 release.

Meanwhile, input.rtmp is a simple wrapper around input.ffmpeg so you can just drop this in your script:

def input.rtmp(~max_buffer=5., ~listen=true, url)
  input.ffmpeg(max_buffer=max_buffer, log_overfull=false, format="live_flv",
               int_args=[("listen", listen ? 1 : 0)], url)
end
