Acquiring data via FFMPEG

Only one connection can exist at a time when reading video data from FFMPEG, otherwise the program will freeze while attempting to pick up the data. Once one connection has been established, you can use:

ffmpeg -i tcp://[ip:port] [outputfile]

In addition, there seem to be some errors with the Jan 14 2014 version of FFMPEG where the recorded data is either sampled or slowed. I updated to the Jan 16 2014 and no longer had this issue.
