Splitmastream is a software that can receive MPEG streams through the standard input and process them accordingly.
This software is particularly useful for creating an archive of an MPEG stream, which could be originating from an encoder and transmitting to an icecast transmitter. The application has been tested on various RedHat Linux distributions, and it should compile on any modern Unix-like operating system with a few trivial #include changes.
Splitmastream is capable of handling various CBR layer3 streams, including 56kbit/s, 128kbit/s, and 192kbit/s. However, other streams should work just as well. As with many applications, if splitmastream breaks, the user gets to keep both pieces.
To compile the application, one only needs to type 'make,' which will generate the 'splitmastream' binary. Overall, for users in need of a reliable way to split and archive MPEG streams, splitmastream is a worthwhile option.
