Lauren Weinstein on Nostr: I'm attempting to send a JPG image through a v4l2 linux driver using this ffmpeg ...
I'm attempting to send a JPG image through a v4l2 linux driver using this ffmpeg command:
ffmpeg -loop 1 -re -i /tmp/file.jpg -f v4l2 -pix_fmt yuv420p /dev/video7
The result is the kind of image below, with the repeated slices. Any ideas what I'm missing? Thanks!
