[SUGGESTION] revive by inspiring from other open projects #122

Open MarcoRavich opened 1 year ago

Hi there, 1st of all thanks for your (voluntary) work !

If this project isn't been definitely abandoned, it would be interesting to revive it by "grab inspiration" from @apple-fritter's RTSP downmix script that renders a 2x2 grid from 4 streams using FFMPEG.

There's also an interesting - but not updated - h264/rtsp Real Time Video player for Android by @eltonwu88 to evaluate.

Of course there are other interesting RTSP viewers projects such as @iEvgeny's CCTV Viewer (that performs extremely smooth on x86 hardware but not on ARM) or @Qrishna's rtsp_stream_viewer (which is C++ coded and relays on OpenCV) but are mutch more "articulated"...

...anyway we believe that active collaboration/knowledge exchanges between devs could bring benefits to any project.

Hope that inspires.

Apologies regarding my lack of understanding the GitHub platform, but maybe this dialogue can continue on in a different venue than this repo's discussion section? I feel though it may be related but is off topic.

Well, GH notifies discussion to any "tagged" author (mentioned by @authorGHaccount)... ...this is a (working) method we use to stimulate discussion - and hopefully collaboration - between projects' devs/maintainers.

However, since some (you and Evgeny, for example) have reacted positively to our "call", we have opened a dedicated discussion here: https://github.com/forart/HyMPS/discussions/17

It's nowhere as near production ready as displaycameras and it's quite simple, but I came up with a quick replacement for my use cases here.
