3.3.4.2 Stop Stream

  • Article

A started stream can be stopped only by an End-Of-Stream (EOS) signal from the encoder, a manual shutdown command, or an internal error. To properly signify the end of a live broadcast, the encoder SHOULD send an empty MfraBox as specified by [ISO/IEC-14496-12] with no embedded sample entries in the Tfra box and no MfroBox following, as specified by [ISO/IEC-14496-12].

The long-running POST request SHOULD be properly terminated by closing the HTTP connection as specified in the HTTP protocol [RFC2616].
