Dumping / Streaming

Requirements

  • sources (camcorders/DSLRs/webcams/microscopes...)
  • frame grabbing (vga?hdmi?composite? Over PCI/PCI-E/USB3?)
  • compositing / encoding (OBS? ffmpeg?)
  • dumping / streaming

Grabbing

  • Analog audio in
  • HDMI in
  • SD analog video in (Switchable between VGA / S-VIDEO / Composite)
  • USB V4L devices (microscopes, webcams)

Compositing

  • OBS requires a GPU which supports OpenGL 3.2 or latter

Encoding

  • What is a baseline system to do real-time 720p x264
  • What is the maximum bitrate we can fill upstream
  • Encoder ={Ubiquiti link}=> Upstream relay ==> Internet

Dumping

  • We need some fast local storage
  • Low disk space warning ( with temporal estimation of remaining recording capacity )
