Couldn't you use named pipes for passing separate streams of input?
- alufers 7y agoI tried doing that, but I ran into some performance problems due to streaming raw video. Instead I streamed the audio via stdin and created a HTTP MJPEG server listening on localhost and pointed ffmpeg there. I was limited to maybe 10 FPS top and the JPEG encoding overhead was also getting noticeable, but I limited the framerate to 1 per second because it was mostly static (song name and current/remaining time of the track).
