I am getting this error when I try to stream my video to YouTube rtmps server and I don't know what it means or how to fix it. Can anyone help?
I first record my screen with Electron's MediaRecorder
then I insert metadata of to the blob (othervise Electron exports without specifying the end of the file)
I convert the webm to mp4 by executing
ffmpeg -i ${tempVideoPath} -c copy ${tempMp4VideoPath}
Then I execute
ffmpeg -re -i ${tempVideoPath} -c copy -f mp4 ${youtubertmpslink}
Finally I get this error:

-f flv at the end of the command that I use to stream the video.mp4 format requires file seek to do its job. So, ffmpeg complains if you instruct it to write mp4 data to a write-only medium (e.g., pipe and internet stream). You need to pick a different file format or change the way your program works if MP4 is a requirement. @kesh
-re -i {{video}} -vcodec libx264 -acodec aac -preset ultrafast -tune zerolatency -f flv ${ingestionLink} this. I have my audio and video codec and also flv conversion in one command.I really don't have much knowledge about ffmpeg and these commands and changes are just combinations of bits and pieces I found.
As far as I understand I just stream the webm video but I change the video and audio codec and also video format in a single command like this.
