Requirements
On your host machine:

- ffmpeg (with ffplay)

On your reMarkable nothing is needed, unless you want...
Sub-second latency
To achieve sub-second latency, you'll need zstd on your host and on your reMarkable.
You can install zstd on your host with your usual package manager. On Ubuntu,
apt install zstd will work.
On your reMarkable you can do opkg install zstd if you have entware installed. If you don't you can use the binary provided in this repository. In general you shouldn't trust binaries strangers on the internet provide to you, but I provide the option if you don't want the hassle of installing entware.
You can install zstd on your reMarkable with the following steps:
- Copy zstd:
scp zstd.arm root@10.11.99.1:~/zstd - SSH to your reMarkable
ssh root@10.11.99.1 - Create the opt lib directory
mkdir -p /opt/lib - Symlink a needed library
ln -s /lib/ld-linux-armhf.so.3 /opt/lib/ld-linux.so.3
This is currently a bit cumbersome. I'm trying to make this a bit easier.
