Wish: monitor

[CarlFK]

I would like to see/hear the mixed stream, like Voctogui, but without the UI.

This is for the presenter and or someone who is not operating Voctogui.

I am hoping this can be done with voctogui config: Only show the mixed video and the audio levels, provide audio to an audio device.

I mostly want this for a stand-alone recording system: single box of camera, hdmi capture, microphone. Ingest, mix, save. If everyone has faith this will just work, we don't really need a monitor to confirm, but I am not that optimistic so I would like a monitor.

In addition to the above box, at multi-room conferences there is often a room (NOC, whatever it is called) where we show all the streams on a projector so we can be aware of issues. I am not sure where or if the code for that is anywhere, it seems it is generally figured out on the fly. If this wish could somehow be applied to the multi-stream monitor, great.

this is a start, but has noticeably more latency than Voctogui.

 gst-launch-1.0 \
    tcpclientsrc host=${core} port=11000 !\

I started looking at Voctogui.py and decided to hope there was something easier than my forking and stripping out the UI elements.
