I used redis for something very similar once before and found that redis was a bottleneck on hd video unless the frames were compressed as JPEG. I came away feeling that it was an easy way to solve the problem but not very efficient.
You have an interesting handle, but regardless, I'd love to get more details
1080p means, uncompressed, each frame is about 6MB. That is a pretty large message size for redis and the throughput/latency of redis is known to go down.

It may just be a case that redis is not terribly optimized for.

Nice work man will set it up on my MBP19 the unofficial metrics seems really promising. any idea to change the license to MIT ?
Awesome use-case with redis and it’s newest modules. Very well done.
TY - that was the secondary goal (the primary being to inspire new use cases...).
This is pretty awesome. Thanks for sharing!
