Youtube livestream URL changing
« on: January 28, 2021, 12:37:30 PM »
Im running a Foscam G4P as an external weather cam and all is fine with that part.
Currently im using ffmpeg on a Raspberrry Pi to convert the rtsp to rtmp and upload to YouTube.  Again this works normally.

The problem i have is if my connection is interrupted for any period of time, when it starts back up YouTube assigns a new URL to the livestream.

Is there any way to prevent this or workaround as obviously this is a bit of a limitation.

Failing that, is there any other embedded website code i can run on the Pi to livestream directly?

Noticed that too and never could figure out how to stop it so decided to use a camera host.
So using BrownRice Internet as the camera host, and can highly recommend.
