Thanks. I'm now using mss to capture the screen, send it using zmq, and feed that as a replacement for this guy's camera stream, which works flawlessly: https://github.com/CT83/SmoothStream

Indeed, both ffmpeg and gstreamer are known for their efficiency and power with handling all sorts of video and image streaming pipelines, but are unfortunately also known for having rather steep initial learning curves. If you have an alternative that's "good enough" for your purposes then I'd say stick with that unless/until you require better performance. I'd help but don't have the time at the moment unfortunately. I'm hoping at some point to integrate easy streaming into pythonic-cv, but I'm booked up with work and other projects at the moment.
