I am trying to play live rtmp stream, streamed via Red5 server. Command used is
ffmpeg -i "rtmp://IP/live/1234 live=1" -f flv rtmp://IP/live/1234_56
The above command for live streaming works well with ffmpeg on Window OS. But unable to stream live rtmp video below command is run on libav ,Ubuntu OS using avconv tool.

avconv -i "rtmp://IP/live/1234 live=1" -f flv rtmp://IP/live/1234_56

Even i used *rtmp_live* AVOption to play live stream or to replace live=1 parameter as given below-
avconv -i "rtmp://IP/live/1234 rtmp_live" -f flv rtmp://IP/live/1234_56

But this command doesn't work. Please tell me how to use rtmp_live or live=1 with avconv tool

Thanks in advance.

Why don't you just use ffmpeg (the one from FFmpeg, not the fake one from libav)? You can download a Linux build of ffmpeg or follow a step-by-step guide to compile ffmpeg. – llogan
FFmpeg is depricated in Ubuntu 12.4 and above versions. Therefore I am trying it with libav. – Yuvraj Kakkar
FFmpeg is the name of a project. It is not deprecated. ffmpeg is the name of a command-line tool offered by both FFmpeg and a fork named libav. The fake ffmpeg from libav has been deprecated. Yes, it is confusing, but this was intended by libav. They chose names already used be FFmpeg (the cli tools, the libraries, and even the word "libav" which historically referred to the whole collection of FFmpeg libraries). See Who can tell me the difference and relation between ffmpeg, libav, and avconv? – llogan
