Any help with making this module better is greatly appreciated. Especially the following areas need some love:

tweak fferserver.conf settings and ffmpeg arguments for less latency and/or less cpu consumption
make the whole chain of TcpVideoStream -> Parser -> ffmpeg -> ffserver more resilient (in descending order of priority);
- handle timeouts from tcpVideoStream
- handle errors from PaVEParser (invalid signature, search forward for next)
- handle unexpected exits from ffmpeg and restart
- handle ffserver exits

Merging your improvements will be much smoother if you create a separate branch for every selfcontained feature and issue a pullreq from there.
