Tbh, it's not a standard protocol for multimedia. It's not a format either.


Sure, I understand it's quite niche.
I have a hard time seeing what this is doing in libavformat.


Just because it is not common, I don't think it is stupid to use message brokers for distributing video/audio content. Message brokers are general purpose.

If you want to publish images every second or so with low latency then using message broker seems a lot cleaner then long-polling/websocket and HTTP publish.
