Yeah tried different variations of background service, doesn't work unfortunately. Also when run normally from terminal, for the first time, if the MJPEG stream is DOWN (the link of whose id passed to the script when it was ran), doesn't persistently keep trying. But if the Stream is UP, it connects, then if I kill the stream , it keeps persistently trying and when the link is UP again, it connect successfully. Either way, impossible to run as a service. Can this be solved? |

By default,
relay.pywill wait for user input by reading from the terminal.This breaks catastrophically when the process is not attached to a terminal, e.g. when started as a systemd unit (#17).
I've changed
relay.pyso that it waits for signals. This works both for keyboard events as well as detached from a terminal. Additionally, a sample systemd unit is provided.
