Hi @pedroSG94,

we are using SimpleRTMP library "https://github.com/faucamp/SimpleRtmp" previously which doesn't disconnect when low internet conditions. RTMP in this library disconnects when zero upload bytes conditions. Any suggestion to make RMTP connection to wait when zero upload bytes.

Thanks

Hello,

First of all, I don't know your previous case but if you stop upload bytes to server. The server can close the connection so you can't do anything about it (it is a server choice, make sure you are using the same server in both cases).
If you lose the connection to server and send packets fail, the connection is totally lost and it should be reconnected. You already have a reconnection example in rotation example.

Are you using RTMP or RTMPS?
You can try use java.io socket instead of ktor sockets. Try with:

//call it any time before startStream
genericStream.getStreamClient().setSocketType(SocketType.JAVA)

If the problem persist after that, share me a way to reproduce your case and compare (share me your server used and how to configure it and a project example using SimpleRtmp). This way I can find the reason of your case and maybe fix it if I have a code error.
