Thanks a lot Moritz, that did the trick.
So I now have:
ffmpeg -i "$SOURCE" -thread_queue_size 2048 -f pulse -i "$AUDIO_SOURCE"
-c:v copy -map 0:v:0 -map 1:a:0 -c:a libmp3lame -f tee
"[f=flv:onfail=ignore]$YOUTUBE_URL/$KEY|[f=flv:onfail=ignore]local_file.mkv"
which gives
Output #0, tee, to '[f=flv:onfail=ignore]rtmp://
a.rtmp.youtube.com/live2/my-key|[f=flv:onfail=ignore]local_file.mkv':
The output file is created, and the stream on YouTube is working too. I
don't know if MKV is the best format to use in this case.
I still have to figure out how to create a filename with a timestamp in it.
I had a look at the strftime option, but I don't know how to insert it into
the tee parameters.
I have another problem now, which is that the bitrate and the size have
disappeared:
frame= 4491 fps= 29 q=-1.0 size=N/A time=00:02:34.16 bitrate=N/A
speed=0.999x
I guess it's because of the tee. Is there any way to put them back on? It
was useful to check the streaming was going ok.
