Trying to view a stream while recording. (That 'sorta kinda' works with a

Ideal would be to keep FFplay open, and start / stop FFmpeg for
recording, or just viewing the incoming signal.
The BMD recorder app does a rather good job of that....
This results in a latency of 6 seconds (Ok, no local file, but with it
and a tee it’s the same)
Have you tried
different encodings?
tee-ing raw frames into both a viewer and a separate encoder?
IIRC the ffmpeg decklink code has a few frames of latency, but not more than
that. OTOH, how many does the x264 encoder have? (I'll assume the encoder
can keep up with the incoming frames.) At least for the viewing part, you
shouldn't use -any- encoding since those same frames will then have to be
decoded for display. (If you're using ffplay to monitor the recording
-after- encoding, they you have to live with the encoder's latency.)
Later,
