Motion is using ffmpeg internally to read data. It is able to read a
variety of sources. Have you tried sending it H.264? My guess would be that
someone on the mailing list is doing that now.

If you use ssh, could you just open a port forwarding to the rtsp source
and let motion read the original stream?
Or try to pipe data using netcat command which will keep the rtsp packet
format

Hello!
How exactly do I do this? I've picked through the documentation but I
don't see any configuration option that would let me read an H.264
stream from a file descriptor or socket. A video file, perhaps, but not
an unseekable file descriptor.

There actually isn't an rtsp source. It's a directly connected hardware
camera.
