# This is a script that is helpful for debugging. You can stream video from the Pi without saving it
# First log into the raspberry pi, and then do these two things:
# cd /usr/src/ffmpeg
# sudo ffserver -f /etc/ff.conf_original & ffmpeg -v quiet -r 5 -s 320x240 -f video4linux2 -i /dev/video0 http://localhost/webcam.ffm
