<div dir="auto">Hi</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Sorry for some kind of offtopic on this list, but you should try to create simple gstreamer pipeline. From my opinion, gstreamer has all pipeline elements which you need (tee, decode, encode, whatever) and will be much more simpler to get working than bare ffmpeg libraries. You can test your pipeline with gst-launch utility.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Yurii</div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">чт, 31 марта 2022 г. в 10:30, Hillel Rosensweig via Libav-user <<a href="mailto:libav-user@ffmpeg.org">libav-user@ffmpeg.org</a>>:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div><div style="font-family:Helvetica Neue,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:16px"><div dir="ltr">Hello all, </div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">I have been trying to output video (from my webcam) simultaneously to both a file ('out.mkv') and pipe: </div><div dir="ltr">The file gets filtered frames packets, and the pipe: gets ufiltered rawvideo.</div><div dir="ltr">My frame rate is 30 fps.
