Hi there,
I am interested in using ffmpeg in a very non-standard way.
There is an application that is currently displaying images to an X11
display.
I would like to modify application, so that the pictures are not
displayed via X,
but fed into ffmpeg, and encoded as frames of a H264 video stream instead.
How do I do this?
(I am aware that one can build a video file from a group of images, like
this:
ffmpeg -f image2 -i foo-%03d.jpeg -r 12 -s WxH foo.avi
... but that's now that I want!
I want to feed the data from my application directly to ffmpeg, without
encoding it into JPEG, and writing it put to a file.
(The purpose of this is to get smaller latencies and better throughput.)

Obviously, I will need to write code, but that's no problem; the
question is where do I start?
Where can I find relevant documentation, and/or code examples? How do I
need to talk to?
Thank you for your help:
Kristof
