+FFserver supports an HTTP interface which exposes the current status

+Simply point your browser to the address of the special status stream
+specified in the configuration file.

+<Stream status.html>
+Format status
+
+# Only allow local people to get the status
+ACL allow localhost
+ACL allow 192.168.0.0 192.168.255.255
+</Stream>

+
+then the server will post a page with the status information when
+the special stream @file{status.html} is requested.
