Hello, 

I could use a little guidance from the ffmpeg gurus on the list here. The short 
summary of my request is that I have a working ffmpeg command line which proves 
my use case, and now I need to convert that to programmatic code and integrate 
it into a app. Details:

*** My use case: 
On a Mac, I need to capture video from an attached camera (such as the internal 
MacBook Pro camera), transcode it to FLV, and then stream (publish) it to Wowza 
media server for restreaming. 

*** What I have done so far: 
I have successfully used the ffmpeg client to take an mp4 video, transcode it 
to FLV, and publish it to Wowza using RTMP, using the following command line: 

ffmpeg -i ~/SampleVideo.mp4 -re -r 24 -b:v 1000k -f flv 
rtmp://localhost/live/SAMPLE_STREAM

I have also consumed the video from a web browser successfully, so I know that 
this is both possible in ffmpeg and works. Basically the above serves as a 
successful prototype for my use-case. 

*** What I need to do now: 
I need know how to do two things specifically: 

1) Convert the above command line to programmatic code which uses the 
underlying ffmpeg libraries to accomplish the same thing. Can anyone point me 
in the right direction of which libraries to use, and or direct me to a snippet 
of sample code which demonstrates how to do this? 

2) Whatever the approach in 1 above, I need to convert from taking a video file 
as input, and instead taking captured frame data as input. 

Any help with these two things would be greatly appreciated. 

Cheers, 

Brad
