Ffmpeg works kinda, but quality is junky and smeary. (Feels really dumb installing VLC, which requires Xserver and all those dependencies, on a headless, CLI-accessible-only VM, though.)

I got lucky on one camera. I'll probably do the 2nd one later. I'll probably leave my 3rd (actually my original WyzeCam) running the stock firmware just for the fun of it.
