I am new to ffmpeg and I am trying to create live streaming app (HLS) and I want Live broadcasting rather than VOD.
I am able to use ffmpeg through terminal and create .ts files from m4v but I am not getting how to achieve the same thing in iPhone.
My approach is to create .ts files at iPhone end and then send it to server.
I am not sure if this approach is correct, If this correct how I can create .ts files then otherwise what's the right approach ?

If you want to create .ts file from iPhone, you will need the FFmpegWrapper library and then do like this,
NSString *outputPath = [documentDirectoryPath stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"out.m3u8"];
FFmpegWrapper *wrapper = [[FFmpegWrapper alloc] init];
[wrapper convertInputPath:inputPath outputPath:outputPath segmentDuration:SEGMENT_DURATION options:nil progressBlock:
^(NSUInteger bytesRead, uint64_t totalBytesRead, uint64_t totalBytesExpectedToRead) {
//Do loading here
} completionBlock:^(BOOL success, NSError *error) {
// Do whatever after it is complete
}];
