Syntax for stream consumer in config file for 2.2?

Since I haven’t found any mention of this anywhere, I’m assuming that there is something missing on my side, but I can’t readily see what. If I use a known working stream syntax in the config file for server 2.2.0, for instance:

  <channels>
    <channel>
      <video-mode>1080p5000</video-mode>
      <consumers>
        <stream>
          <path>udp://224.0.0.101:1234?pkt_size=1316</path>
          <args>-filter:v format=pix_fmts=yuv420p -codec:v h264_nvenc -format mpegts</args>
        </stream>
      </consumers>
    </channel>
  </channels>

Server responds with:

But if I run the same command manually at the console…

ADD 1 STREAM udp://224.0.0.101:1234?pkt_size=1316 -filter:v format=pix_fmts=yuv420p -codec:v h264_nvenc -format mpegts

…everything is just fine.

Same happens on 2.1.0 (not as much clutter in the log though) but not 2.0.7. Syntax change? Pebcac error?

Best regards

Following works in config file.

   <ffmpeg>
      <path>udp://224.0.0.101:1234?pkt_size=1316</path>
      <args>-filter:v format=pix_fmts=yuv420p -codec:v h264_nvenc -format mpegts</args>
   </ffmpeg>

Here i tested <ffmpeg> tag in place of <stream>

That did the trick, thanks!

Should we update the configuration wiki on GitHub to reflect that change? I’m new to the community so I’m not sure if its suitable for me to go and edit myself just like that.
