How to let multiple clients access the same camera at the same time

[NaiveInvestigator]

as stated above, when we try to access the same camera on 2 different devices, the video stream lags a lot, or one of the devices straight up shows no output.

You can use some of the mjpeg proxies, there are a lot of them, written in python, go, etc. Just pick.

Something like https://github.com/vvidic/mjpeg-proxy or https://github.com/johannfr/mjpeg-proxy.

There was a request to add something like that here, but at the time I wanted cam2ip to be as simple as possible. Maybe I will try something when I find the time, I also have a few more ideas but I don't have the time to experiment.
