Are there any video players which can play a webrtc stream? Last I checked, VLC ...

WebRTC is normally used in bidirectional use cases like video chat with text options, so I don't think it so odd that VLC doesn't outright support it. VLC does not support dialing into an Asterisk server, either.

That's impossible, VLC supports everything. If VLC doesn't support it, it doesn't exist.

While that might be true I've found mpv more approachable when doing weird inputs

XAVC HS 4k 10Bit HEVC 4:2:2 on Windows.

Plex and ffmpeg, perfectly fine. VLC is not a fan.

I wish vlc supported usf, 2sf and minigsf

Amen.

I'd guess VLC will get support for it soon now that ffmpeg supports it.

Possibly, but VLC maintains its own codec libraries and doesn't rely on FFMpeg.

Maybe I'm wrong but in this case, couldn't you create your own middleware server that could consume the Weber stream feed and then stream out as a regular vlc consumable feed? I'm guessing there will be some transcoding on the fly but that should be trivial..

Should ffplay support it if ffmpeg added support for it in general?
