Anyone knows a cross-platform app that can stream audio/video from one device to another on the same wifi network? Everything I find is for phones, but I need it on a laptop too.
Basically trying to do a babyphone/nannycam thing. Not routing through the global internet please (I'm in the ocean, latency is high).

The Child Monitor app on f-droid looks alright but it only supports Android, I'd need to use a laptop as a server or client (interchangeably).

@fvsch setup a rtmp server (eg nginx-rtmp). Link the webcam to the stream server and then watch the stream from another device
