Just do a chmod +x script.file and ./script.file .
I can't get audio to work. There is some noise for about 1 second and then it stops. And video does have a huge delay (30sec+?)
Device is an raspberry pi with an external logitech webcam.
Would be very thankful for any idea why.
I try to play it via VLC player

# Definition of the live feeds. Each live feed contains one video
# and/or audio sequence coming from an ffmpeg encoder or another
# ffserver. This sequence may be encoded simultaneously with several
# codecs at several resolutions.
<Feed camera.ffm>
# You must use 'ffmpeg' to send a live feed to ffserver. In this
# example, you can type:
#
# ffmpeg http://localhost:8090/feed1.ffm
# ffserver can also do time shifting. It means that it can stream any
# previously recorded live stream. The request should contain:
# "http://xxxx?date=[YYYY-MM-DDT][[HH:]MM:]SS[.m...]".You must specify
# a path where the feed is stored on disk. You also specify the
# maximum size of the feed, where zero means unlimited. Default:
# File=/tmp/feed_name.ffm FileMaxSize=5M
File /tmp/feed1.ffm
FileMaxSize 200M
# You could specify
# ReadOnlyFile /saved/specialvideo.ffm
# This marks the file as readonly and it will not be deleted or updated.
# Specify launch in order to start ffmpeg automatically.
# First ffmpeg must be defined with an appropriate path if needed,
# after that options can follow, but avoid adding the http:// field
#Launch ffmpeg
# Only allow connections from localhost to the feed.

# rm : RealNetworks-compatible stream. Multiplexed audio and video.
# ra : RealNetworks-compatible stream. Audio only.
# mpjpeg : Multipart JPEG (works with Netscape without any plugin)

@BakytzhanAkzhol I've met same error when publishing webcam to ffserver on windows 10. Did you solve this?
Is the source code of ffserver still available ?
@YasirKubarah Yes, in commit 2ca65fc or the 3.4 release branch, as noted on https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/ffserver
