This is old and unsupported.

FFmpeg's avfoundation device is an (input) demuxer only.
Is Apple's avfoundation also supposed to be an output
api?

[FFmpeg-user] How can I stream to a Mac Mini USB output?

[Fred Rotbart]

Hi,

I have a MiniDSP U-DIO8 
 connected 
to the USB port of a 2018 Mac Mini running Kodi 18.1-RC1 on Mojave 
10.14.4. The U-DIO8 provides 8 output channels as 4xSPDIF connections 
and similarly 8 channels of input as 4xSPDIF connections.


I can capture audio input from the input channels but I do not know how 
I can stream ffmpeg output to the U-DIO8 output channels.


If I list devices this is what I get:

~#ffmpeg -f avfoundation -list_devices true -i ""

The USBStreamer is the U-DIO8 device.

What do I need to add to the ffmpeg command line to cause ffmpeg to 
output to USBStreamer?


Thanks,
