FFmpeg to Azure Media Services Smooth Streaming Input

I would like to ask about ffmpeg config or command to to mp4 fragment to Azure Media Service live event using smooth streaming / isml protocol. The AMS is not getting any input yet from ffmpeg. This is my current running command:

ffmpeg -f dshow -i video="Webcam" -movflags isml+frag_keyframe -f isml -r 10 http://endpoint/ingest.isml/streaming1

When I am using RTMP with Wirecast is running well.

Any suggestion on ffmpeg command with isml protocol?

Thank you

it is possibly the way you are formatting the ingest URL. The Smooth ingest protocol expects the name of /Streams(yourtrackname-identifier) after it.

See the Smooth ingest specification for details

Here is an FFMPEG command line that I had sitting around that worked for me on a Raspberry Pi at one time

ffmpeg  -i /dev/video1 -pix_fmt yuv420p -f ismv -movflags isml+frag_keyframe  -video_track_timescale 10000000 -frag_duration 2000000 -framerate 30 -r 30  -c:v h264_omx -preset ultrafast -map 0:v:0  -b:v:0 2000k -minrate:v:0 2000k -maxrate:v:0 2000k -bufsize 2500k  -s:v:0 640x360  -map 0:v:0  -b:v:1 500k -minrate:v:1 500k -maxrate:v:1 500k -s:v:1 480x360 -g 60 -keyint_min 60 -sc_threshold 0  -c:a libfaac -ab 48k  -map 0:a? -threads 0 "http://johndeu-nimbuspm.channel.mediaservices.windows.net/ingest.isml/Streams(video)"

Note that i used the following stream identifier - ingest.isml/Streams(video)

Here are a couple more commands that may help.

fmpeg -v debug -y -re -i "file.wmv" -movflags isml+frag_keyframe -video_track_timescale 10000000 -frag_duration 2000000 -f ismv -threads 0 -c:a libvo_aacenc -ac 2 -b:a 20k -c:v libx264 -preset fast -profile:v baseline -g 48 -keyint_min 48 -b:v 200k -s:v 320x240 http://xxxx.userid.channel.mediaservices.windows.net/ingest.isml/Streams(video)

Multi-bitrate encoding and ingest

ffmpeg -re -stream_loop -1 -i C:\Video\tears_of_steel_1080p.mov -movflags isml+frag_keyframe -f ismv -threads 0 -c:a aac -ac 2 -b:a 64k -c:v libx264 -preset fast -profile:v main -g 48 -keyint_min 48 -sc_threshold 0 -map 0:v -b:v:0 5000k -minrate:v:0 5000k -maxrate:v:0 5000k -s:v:0 1920x1080 -map 0:v -b:v:1 3000k -minrate:v:1 3000k -maxrate:v:1 3000k -s:v:1 1280x720 -map 0:v -b:v:2 1800k -minrate:v:2 1800k -maxrate:v:2 1800k -s:v:2 854x480 -map 0:v -b:v:3 1000k -minrate:v:3 1000k -maxrate:v:3 1000k -s:v:3 640x480 -map 0:v -b:v:4 600k -minrate:v:4 600k -maxrate:v:4 600k -s:v:4 480x360 -map 0:a:0

EXPLANATION OF WHAT IS GOING ON ABOVE ON THE FFMPEG COMMAND LINE.

ffmpeg 

-re     **READ INPUT AT NATIVE FRAMERATE
-stream_loop -1  **LOOP INFINITE
-i C:\Video\tears_of_steel_1080p.mov   **INPUT FILE IS THIS MOV FILE
-movflags isml+frag_keyframe  **OUTPUT IS SMOOTH STREAMING THIS SETS THE FLAGS
-f ismv  **OUTPUT ISMV SMOOTH
-threads 0  ** SETS THE THREAD COUNT TO USE FOR ALL STREAMS. YOU CAN USE A STREAM SPECIFIC COUNT AS WELL
-c:a aac  ** SET TO AAC CODEC
-ac 2   ** SET THE OUTPUT TO STEREO
-b:a 64k ** SET THE BITRATE FOR THE AUDIO
 -c:v libx264  ** SET THE VIDEO CODEC
-preset fast ** USE THE FAST PRESET FOR X246
 -profile:v main **USE THE MAIN PROFILE
-g 48 ** GOP SIZE IS 48 frames
 -keyint_min 48 ** KEY INTERVAL IS SET TO 48 FRAMES
-sc_threshold 0  ** NOT SURE! 
-map 0:v   ** MAP THE FIRST VIDEO TRACK OF THE FIRST INPUT FILE
-b:v:0 5000k   **SET THE OUTPUT TRACK 0 BITRATE
-minrate:v:0 5000k  ** SET OUTPUT TRACK 0 MIN RATE TO SIMULATE CBR
-maxrate:v:0 5000k  ** SET OUTPUT TRACK 0 MAX RATE TO SIMULATE CBR
-s:v:0 1920x1080  **SCALE THE OUTPUT OF TRACK 0 to 1920x1080. 
-map 0:v  ** MAP THE FIRST VIDEO TRACK OF THE FIRST INPUT FILE
-b:v:1 3000k ** SET THE OUTPUT TRACK 1 BITRATE TO 3Mbps
-minrate:v:1 3000k -maxrate:v:1 3000k  ** SET THE MIN AND MAX RATE TO SIMULATE CBR OUTPU
-s:v:1 1280x720  ** SCALE THE OUTPUT OF TRACK 1 to 1280x720
-map 0:v -b:v:2 1800k  ** REPEAT THE ABOVE STEPS FOR THE REST OF THE OUTPUT TRACKS
-minrate:v:2 1800k -maxrate:v:2 1800k -s:v:2 854x480 
-map 0:v -b:v:3 1000k -minrate:v:3 1000k -maxrate:v:3 1000k -s:v:3 640x480 
-map 0:v -b:v:4 600k -minrate:v:4 600k -maxrate:v:4 600k -s:v:4 480x360 
-map 0:a:0    ** FINALLY TAKE THE SOURCE AUDIO FROM THE FIRST SOURCE AUDIO TRACK.
