Openflexure microscope livestream cuts out periodically

This seems to describe the behavior pretty well, and it seems to be a common issue:

However, often times the Pi is not responsive when going back to it (overheating perhaps? temperature icon appears at times). No response on screen, so I end up needing to power cycle it when it stops responding.

Perhaps running it in Thonny rather than a terminal poses an issue. Likewise, maybe the ffmpeg command needs to be adjusted to consider the low hardware resources on the Pi. It could be related to the intensiveness of running both openflexure desktop and livestreaming a screen share.

Perhaps better to leave alone for now.

Maybe worth mentioning to that it's running on the same interpreter that thonnie uses, and not the default when using terminal.

MQTT became unresponsive (prev. post was actually from last week). Probably going to stop doing live streaming for now, to focus on high uptime for MQTT
