Recently I’m trying to stalk my brother for the funsies. Here’s a list of all of my attempts doing it:

  • Streaming audio using FFmpeg/ALSA: It only detected the microphone. I can set up a loopback, but it’s not worth my time to do. (plus it kinda forgets what I do)

  • Streaming audio using FFmpeg/PulseAudio: It just says Generic error in external library. Probably PipeWire related.

  • Streaming video using FFmpeg/x11grab: It only captures the mouse cursor. Since he’s using Ubuntu 22, it uses Wayland which doesn’t play well with x11grab.

  • Streaming video using OBS: I can’t make it not use the window. I tried using X11 forwarding, but it’s not set up right and I ended up opening the window in remote…
