Hello
Currently I notice that streaming from dv or v4l generates delays from about 1-2 seconds. I tried all options about caching. Currently my caching settings are:
Stream server side
v4l-caching=95
dv-caching=10
file-caching=1280 (dvgrab - |vlc - ...)
Client side
http-caching=10
If I set the caches lower than these settings the caching server continuous looses frams or cannot prefill the buffer. But the current project is for full resolution video conferencing and 2 seconds delay it definitly to much. Are there some experts who can advise me to reduce the delay to around 1/2 second. Recompiling etc. is not the problem but I should have a solution.
I currently use a brand new Pentium D 3 Ghz. Are there hardware types which are faster for this job? Is it possible to use hardware encoder (cards) to boost ffmpeg etc?
Many thanks for all Your help
