Currently the Webcam uses jpeg for each frame, but there is no particular reason why we can't use video encodings or even pass-through:

  • capture raw H264 from the webcam if available
  • re-inject this directly into the loopback device (requires this patch: [https://github.com/add support of VP9 & HEVC umlaeute/v4l2loopback#142/commits/8d7a6bc766261276a7cb780fe2f4ab3ac847f1f9] for HEVC and VP9)
