Hi all, I know this is not a NixOS specific question, but I hope someone will be able to answer this. I have a BRIO-4K camera. I can use it in OBS just fine, but I wanted 2 sources, one which is cropped and one full on 2 separate scenes. So I thought about using loopback devices and pass the video source there. Issue is, I am using ffmpeg to do it and I am unable to pass 4K source to the sink (/dev/video8 and /dev/video9 are sinks created with the v4l2 module options). They only accept 1080p.
I found the reason for this, the camera only supports 4K in MJPEG mode, YUYV. Not sure how to pipe that to output. Here’s what I currently use: ffmpeg -i /dev/video0 -s 4096x2160 -vcodec rawvideo -pix_fmt rgb24 -threads 0 -f v4l2 /dev/video8 . Even if I use -s 4k, the output is rawvideo (YUY2 / 0x32595559), yuyv422, 1920x1080, 995328 kb/s, 30 fps, 30 tbr, 1000k tbn
Here’s the output:
