multicat is a 1 input/1 output application. Inputs and outputs can
|
|
be network streams (unicast and multicast), files, directories,
|
|
character devices or FIFOs. It is thought to be a multicast equivalent
|
|
of the popular netcat tool. Typical applications are recording live
|
|
transport streams, or playing out TS files without modification.
|
|
Also it is able to record a continuous stream into a directory,
|
|
rotate the files periodically, and make seamless extracts from it.
|
|
|
|
Multicat tries to rebuild the internal clock of the input stream;
|
|
but it wants to remain agnostic of what is transported, so in case
|
|
of files the said clock is stored to an auxiliary file (example.aux
|
|
accompanies example.ts) while recording. Other inputs are considered
|
|
"live", and the input clock is simply derived from the reception
|
|
time of the packets.
