Thank you for your help Moritz, I tried your suggestion and I can say it
works.

I'm now trying to implement the same thing but using webm streaming, with
the same configuration, just replacing the format and VideoCodec:

*<Stream test.webm>              # Output stream URL definition*
*   Feed feed1.ffm              # Feed from which to receive video*
*   Format webm*

*   # Audio settings*
*   NoAudio          *

*   VideoCodec libvpx*
*   VideoSize 1280x720           *
*   VideoFrameRate 25          *
*   AVOptionVideo flags +global_header  *
*   AVOptionVideo cpu-used 0*
*   AVOptionVideo qmin 10*
*   AVOptionVideo qmax 42*
*   AVOptionVideo quality good*
*   AVOptionVideo me_range 16*
*   AVOptionVideo qdiff 4*
*   AVOptionAudio flags +global_header*
*   PreRoll 15*
*   StartSendOnKey*
*   VideoBitRate 1M*
*</Stream>*

but when i try to run it with *ffmpeg -f v4l2 -input_format rawvideo
-pixel_format yuyv422 -framerate 25 -video_size 1280x720 -i /dev/video0
http://localhost:8090/feed1.ffm <http://localhost:8090/feed1.ffm>*, i get
the following error:
