Restart stream failed due to connectivity issues

[adilinden]

When ffmpeg is unable to send data to ingest link it stops and container exists. Manual restart resumes stream.

[adilinden]

Implemented and tested on container level using the adilinden-oss/docker-rpi-stream container. Added this to entry.sh:

    ffmpeg-loop)
        # Keep running ffmpeg until explicitely stopped
        shift
        while "true"; do
            echo "Executing \"ffmpeg $(echo $@ | cut -c -55)...\""
            ffmpeg $@

            # Pause for a bit before retrying
            echo -n "Pausing... "
            for ((wait=20; wait>=1; wait--))
            do
                echo -n "$wait "
                sleep 1
            done
            echo
        done
        ;;

To use, install the adilinden/rpi-stream on OctoPi command line (ssh session).

docker pull adilinden/rpi-stream:latest
