Hi

I am trying to do a 'live stream' on a beagle bone green with wifi (http://wiki.seeedstudio.com/BeagleBone_Green_Wireless/).
Well (semi live...since RTMP has some big delays for us...)
(OH...side note - if someone is good with Beaglebone live streaming and maybe using P2P... please let me know...I need a little help...thanks!!)

And having issues with output - lines in screen.

4) All the different script we try - same result...

ffmpeg -s 320x240 -r 30 -i /dev/video0 -c:v libx264 -f flv rtmp://165.22.232.61:1935/hls/movie

5) If I use a different webcam
- Logitech c905 - same same input format
- no lines...
- ffmpeg -v verbose -r 30 -s 320x240 -f v4l2 -i /dev/video0 -pix_fmt yuv422p -c:v libx264 -f flv rtmp://165.22.232.61:1935/hls/movie
