[FFmpeg-user] Transport Stream with h264 (Constrained baseline)/aac encoding for HLS streaming

[Jay]

Hello,

I am looking for ffmpeg command to do live streaming (.ts files) encoded by h264 (Constrained Baseline) + aac from an AV source (Ex: Webcam). I tried several attempts and till now I have not found a way to accomplish this. I could get .ts files encoded with mpeg2video, but this will not work with Apple's HLS implementation. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.


Command used (OS: Windows)
>ffmpeg  -f dshow  -i video="USB2.0 Camera":audio="Microphone (Realtek High Definition Audio)" -r 29.97  -bsf h264_mp4toannexb  -codec:v libx264 -codec:a libvo_aacenc -pix_fmt yuv420p -vprofile baseline -level 2.1 -f segment -segment_list Test\pindex.m3u8 -segment_time 10  Test\out%03d.ts
