Detailed Description

Resource URI of a video device, IP stream, or file/directory.

The URI object is used by videoSource, videoOutput, and videoOptions to identify which resource is being streamed. It will parse a string into protocol, path, and port/extension components.

URI protocols for videoSource input streams include MIPI CSI cameras (csi://), V4L2 cameras (v4l2://), RTP/RTSP networking streams (rtp:// and rtsp://), and disk-based videos/images/directories (file://)

- `csi://0` for MIPI CSI cameras, where `0` can be replaced with the camera port.
It is also assumed that if a number with no protocol is specified (e.g. `"0"`),
this means to use the MIPI CSI camera of that number (`"0"` -> `csi://0`)

- `v4l2:///dev/video0` for V4L2 cameras, where `/dev/video0` can be replaced with
a different video device (e.g. `v4l2:///dev/video1` for V4L2 video device `1`).
If no protocol is specified but the string begins with `/dev/video`, then it is
assumed that the protocol is V4L2 (`/dev/video0` -> `v4l2:///dev/video0`)

- `rtp://@:1234` to recieve an RTP network stream, where `1234` is the port and `@` is shorthand
for localhost. `@` can also be substituted for the IP address of a multicast group.
Note that it is important to manually specify the codec and width/height when using RTP,
as these values cannot be discovered from the RTP stream itself and need to be provided.
@see videoOptions for more info about `--input-codec`, `--input-width`, and `--input-height`.

- `rtsp://username:password@<remote-host>:1234` to subscribe to an RTSP network stream, where
`<remote-host>` should be substituted for the remote host's IP address or hostname, and
`1234` is the port. For example, `rtsp://192.168.1.2:5000`. The `username` and `password`
are optional, and are only used for RTSP streams that require authentication.

- `file:///home/user/my_video.mp4` for disk-based videos, images, and directories of images.
You can leave off the `file://` protocol identifier and it will be deduced from the path.
It can be a relative or absolute path. If a directory is specified that contains images,
those images will be loaded in sequence (sorted alphanumerically). The path can also
contain wildcard characters, for example `"images/*.jpg"` - however when using wildcards
from the command line, enclose the string in quotes otherwise the OS will pre-expand them.
Supported video formats for loading include MKV, MP4, AVI, and FLV. Supported codecs for
decoding include H.264, H.265, VP8, VP9, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, and MJPEG. Supported image formats
for loading include JPG, PNG, TGA, BMP, GIF, PSD, HDR, PIC, and PNM (PPM/PGM binary).

URI protocols for videoOutput streams include rendering to displays (display://), broadcasting RTP/RTSP streams (rtp://, rtsp://), WebRTC streams (webrtc://), and saving videos/images to disk (file://)

- `display://0` for rendering to display using OpenGL, where `0` corresponds to the display number.
By default, an OpenGL window will be created, unless the `--headless` command line option is used.

- `rtp://<remote-host>:1234` to broadcast a compressed RTP stream to a remote host, where you should
substitute `<remote-host>` with the remote host's IP address or hostname, and `1234` is the port.

- `rtsp://@:8554/my_stream` to serve a compressed RTSP stream at the specified port and stream path.
RTSP clients can connect to the stream at the specified path. Using this will create a RTSP server
that can handle multiple videoOutput streams on the same port but with different paths
(e.g. `rtsp://<hostname>:8554/my_stream_1`, `rtsp://<hostname>:8554/my_stream_2`, ect)

- `webrtc://@:1234/my_stream` to serve a compressed WebRTC stream at the specified port and path
that browsers can connect to and view. Users will be able to navigate their browser to
`http://<hostname>:1234/my_stream` and view a rudimentary video player that plays the stream.
More advanced web front-ends can be created by using standard client-side Javascript WebRTC APIs.

- `file:///home/user/my_video.mp4` for saving videos, images, and directories of images to disk.
You can leave off the `file://` protocol identifier and it will be deduced from the path.
It can be a relative or absolute path. You can output a sequence of images using a path of
the form `my_dir/image_%i.jpg` (where `%i` can include printf-style modifiers like `%03i`).
The `%i` will be replaced with the image number in the sequence. If just a directory is
specified, then by default it will create a sequence of the form `%i.jpg` in that directory.
Supported video formats for saving include MKV, MP4, AVI, and FLV. Supported codecs for
encoding include H.264, H.265, VP8, VP9, and MJPEG. Supported image formats for saving
include JPG, PNG, TGA, and BMP.

The URI strings used should take one of the above forms for input/output streams to be parsed correctly.
