I am watching VHS tapes with ffmpeg and piping it into MPV with ffmpeg -f v4l2 -i [my video card] -f alsa -i [my sound card] -c copy -f nut pipe:1 | mpv -. The reason I'm not just playing the video and audio stream off of my capture device is because I want to be able to adjust audio delay in real time with MPV hotkeys. This works well so far. Now, I want to grab the stream from another computer on my LAN. How do I do that? I've been thinking of sshfs, but I can't mount the capture card. Should I stream into a file on the server which I then mount on the client side with sshfs? If I did that, I'd have to delete the file that my command created every time I watched something, no?

Sic! I had no idea you can pass commands to ssh like that! Thanks a lot! :)
