The mpeg encoding in low end cameras is used to keep the stream bandwidth below the 480Mb/s USB limit. But that is still way too fast for a 10-20Mb Internet connection. Things like Skype have highly optimized software encoders and convert the 480Mb down to 1Mb/s or so. ffmpeg will software convert too, but the Allwinner chips aren't fast enough. Your desktop x86 is probably 25x or more faster at this task which allows it to work in software. You need something like a Logitech C920 with hardware h.264 to get low bandwidth streams. Or you could get the Cedar h.264 encoder working. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "linux-sunxi" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [email protected]. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out. -- Jon Smirl [email protected] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "linux-sunxi" group.
