compositing_streamer

Combines multiple RTSP streams into a single HLS stream.

The problem I want to solve is I have multiple cameras that support RTSP. I
want to combine them into a single HLS stream which I can throw onto a Google
Home Hub using Home Assistant

If you want to do this multiple times, run multiple containers

TODO

• Make nginx start the streamer command only when there is a session going
• Figure out a way to have more than two streams along with clean ways of setting the x & y coords
• Figure out how to downsample the incoming streams into a single 1920x540 stream, right now it's a 3840x1080p stream

Dev tips
