> Looking into IPC methods for getting video into a pipeline I found shmsrc, however that doesn't work on Microsoft Windows as I believe it is POSIX based. What options are there? UDP doesn't seem like a very good solution.

You might consider writing a plugin that uses typical Windows IPC mechanisms like named pipes, memory-mapped files, etc.
