This looks great. To be useful in the datacenter environments I work in such a device would need VGA capture, though. Most servers don't have HDMI ports in my experience.

Anybody know of a good, cheap V4L2 USB-based VGA capture dongle?

Could always add another dongle with something like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BKYBKGP maybe?

Most obvious choice, but the USB port might not be able to provide enough power. You could splice in an external adapter with a bit of work, though :)
