For some reason, ffmpeg just sits here
try -f yuv4mpegpipe -y fifo.y4m <https://lists.mplayerhq.hu/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user>
It still sits there, doesnt process. Do I have to compile ffmpeg or x264 in a special way to allow named pipes to work? I ran some other tests on my system and it seems named pipes work with other scripts/executables
It must work, have you removed the - and > ? Try to run the commands from different shells, to avoid silly problems.
