[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] UDP hangs with no input data

[Jindrich Makovicka]

Hi,

when there are no incoming packets on the specified UDP address/port,
libavformat waits indefinitely, and can be only terminated using
SIGKILL. The attached patches add

1) UDP receive timeout, which is 10 seconds by default, and adjustable
in the URL, and
2) error check in the stream probing code so the probe can terminate
as soon as possible in the case there are actually no data flowing.
