<p>The <code class="highlighter-rouge">ffmpeg</code> platform allows you to use every video feed with <a href="http://www.ffmpeg.org/">FFmpeg</a> as camera in Home Assistant.</p>
<p class="note">
You need a ffmpeg binary in your system path. On debain 8 you can install it from backports. If you want HW support on raspberry you need self build from source. Windows binary are avilable on ffmpeg homepage.
</p>
<p>To enable your FFmpeg feed in your installation, add the following to your <code class="highlighter-rouge">configuration.yaml</code> file:</p>
<div class="language-yaml highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code><span class="c1"># Example configuration.yaml entry</span>
<span class="s">camera</span><span class="pi">:</span>
<span class="pi">-</span> <span class="s">platform</span><span class="pi">:</span> <span class="s">ffmpeg</span>
<span class="s">input</span><span class="pi">:</span> <span class="s">FFMPEG_SUPPORTED_INPUT</span>
<span class="s">name</span><span class="pi">:</span> <span class="s">FFmpeg</span>
<span class="s">ffmpeg_bin</span><span class="pi">:</span> <span class="s">/usr/bin/ffmpeg</span>
<span class="s">extra_arguments</span><span class="pi">:</span> <span class="s">-q:v 2</span>
</code></pre>
</div>
<p>Configuration variables:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>input</strong> (<em>Required</em>): A ffmpeg compatible input file, stream or feed.</li>

<li><strong>ffmpeg_bin</strong> (<em>Optional</em>): Default ffmpeg.</li>
<li><strong>extra_arguments</strong> (<em>Optional</em>): Extra option they will pass to ffmpeg. i.e. image quality or video filter options.</li>
</ul>
<h3><a class="title-link" name="image-quality" href="#image-quality"></a> Image quality</h3>
