tsdumper2
=========
tsdumper2 reads incoming mpeg transport stream over UDP/RTP and then
records it to disk. The files names are generated based on preconfigured
time interval.
License
=======
tsdumper2 is released under GNU GPL v2.
Development
===========
The development is done using git. tsdumper2 repository is hosted
at http://github.com/gfto/tsdumper2
To clone the repository issue the following commands:
git clone git://github.com/gfto/tsdumper2.git
cd tsdumper2
git submodule init
git submodule update
make
The code is developed and tested under modern Linux. It is also
compiled from time to time under OS X but is not tested there.
To see all Makefile targets run 'make help'.
Updating the code
=================
To update cloned tsdumper2, go to the directory where the repository
is cloned and run the following commands:
git fetch origin
git merge origin/master
git submodule update
make clean all
tsdumper2's master branch should always be useful so it is safe to
use it instead of official release. The master branch will always
be better than any released version.
Command line parameters

-D --create-dirs | Save files in subdirs YYYY/MM/DD/HH/file.
Input options:
-i --input <source> | Where to read from.
. -i udp://224.0.0.1:5000 (v4 multicast)
. -i udp://[ff01::1111]:5000 (v6 multicast)
. -i rtp://224.0.0.1:5000 (v4 RTP input)

# files with test- prefix
tsdumper2 --input udp://239.78.78.78:5000/ --prefix test
# Same as above but create directories YYYY/MM/DD/HH and put
# files into the directory.
tsdumper2 --input udp://239.78.78.78:5000/ --prefix test --create-dirs
# Same as above but create directories YYYY/MM/DD/HH and put
