stream the output to mjpegstreamer or similar?

[adelorenzo]

Sorry to put this question here but is there a way to stream the output for instance with mjpegstreamer or similar?

Thank you.

Thanks for this idea, love it! Can you say a little more about how you would be using the video stream?

A few notes for myself:

The picamera library provides a streaming example here.

Compositing an mmal overlay might "just work" with this fork of mjpeg-streamer, which supports RaspiCam's mmal as an input source. This fork is used in OctoPrint (web interface for 3D printers)

I work with video/blog production and my idea is to stream live via OBS using the output of rpi-object-tracking.

Thank you!!

Hi @leigh-johnson if you have any further pointer towards making this work, please let us know.

My use case is to view the same view (the rpi camera + overlays from the rpi-object-tracking) on another computer. Another computer may run/configure any apps on windows. If there's an easy way to accomplish this already, love to hear it!
