I tried to answer it about a year and half ago and that answer is still mostly correct: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41743932

You can mix and match operating systems, macOS, Windows, Linux, you do not need sudo privileges.

rffmpeg needs a shared file system which could be a huge pain to setup: https://github.com/joshuaboniface/rffmpeg/blob/master/docs/S...

ffmpeg-over-ip patches ffmpeg and only needs one port open for the server, then you just run the binary, no mounts needed at all.
