[FFmpeg-user] How to display web pages to a videowall

Greetings

My company has a video wall whose decoder is essentially designed only 
for cameras, so the only devices it can view, via IP, are those with 
"protocols" like RTSP or Onvif. It also has 4 HMDI/DVI ports to view any 
"normal" graphic output (btw: it's a Dahua NVD0905DH-4I-4K,  but the 
documentation about it is really sparse).

Now, the problem that I wanted to put to you and which is reported in 
the subject of this email, is the following: some web pages must also be 
displayed on the video wall. Our facilities, in fact, are monitored via 
BMS and DCIM systems which expose the data as web pages.

The question is: is there a way in which ffmpeg can access these pages 
and "convert" them into a "stream" to feed to the decoder?

Thanks in advance for your answers

G. Esposito
