I currently have a program which can grab a BufferedImage from a webcam input whenever it needs. I'm now looking for a method/library to encode this into an RTMP stream. Xuggler seemed like a good option in this answer, but from what I can tell, it seems very outdated and poorly maintained. Xuggler appears to be built on top of FFMPEG - would I be able to achieve this with FFMPEG alone instead? I'm fairly unfamiliar with FFMPEG but can look into it if it's worth looking into.
Essentially, I want to achieve a program which can livestream a webcam - but this MUST be from a constantly changing BufferedImage, as I want to manipulate the webcam output with this BufferedImage later on.
If you are interersted by Xuggler I am actively maintain a fork of it. You can find it on https://github.com/olivierayache/xuggle-xuggler
