Thanks for quick answers.

I also would like to reduce the stream latency/delay.
I tried (with success) reducing the value for -analyzeduration, but with
too low values I get these error:

[mpegts @ 01f37fc0] Could not find codec parameters for stream 0 (Video:
h264 ([27][0][0][0] / 0x001B)): unspecified size
[mpegts @ 02587fc0] Could not find codec parameters for stream 1 (Audio:
mp3 ([3][0][0][0] / 0x0003), 0 channels, s16p): unspecified frame size

Is there any general rule to find the limit?

-rtbufsize seems to be ignored (and documentation says it has drawbacks).

-fflags nobuffer seems to have no effect on ffplay.

-tune zerolatency on stream generation reduced delay a little

Summarizing:

Stream generation:
ffmpeg -re -f dshow -i video="Logitech QuickCam Communicate
STX":audio="Logitech Mic (Communicate STX)" -vcodec libx264 -s 320x240 -g
15 -r 15 -q:v 1 -acodec libmp3lame -q:a 1 -tune zerolatency -f mpegts udp://
192.168.0.27:1200

Stream view:
ffplay udp://192.168.0.27:1200 -analyzeduration 1000

With these parameters, the delay is a bit more than 1 second.
Is it possible to do better?

Thanks,
Massimo
