  I followed your instructions. I changed localhost to 127.0.0.1:10000, and I was using input from an rtsp.
  
  Here is my command. It worked for me. I was able to get the stream in VLC player.
  
  ```
  ffmpeg -i "rtsp://someurl/" -c:v copy -c:a aac -listen 1 -ar 44100 -ab 64000 \
         -f flv rtmp://127.0.0.1:10000/live
  
  ```
