This is useful +either for running a very cheap secondary stream (say, a static overview camera +that you would like to show on a separate screen somewhere), or for simple +monitoring during debugging. + +The URL for said stream is “http://yourserver.example.org:9095/feeds/N.mp4”, +where N is the card index (starting from zero). The feed is in MJPEG format +and MP4 mux, regardless of other settings, just like the multicamera mux +for Futatabi. (You are allowed to use a card that is not part of the +multicamera mux, if you have limited the number of such cards.) For +more technical details, see :ref:`futatabiformat`. Kaeru can transcode such +streams to a more manageable bitrate/format, if you wish. -- 2.39.2
