I have a headless RPi 4B 8GB with a fully updated RPiOS desktop and recommended software 64-bit (Bookworm running Wayland/Wayfire) and an RPi Camera Module v2.1. The system is set to autologin. I access it via both SSH and TigerVNC in my home network.
I want to start running the following command to stream camera video to a server whenever the RPi boots and autologs the sole user in.
I have read the excellent boot.pdf Guide written by 'thagrol' and available here: https://github.com/thagrol/Guides/tree/main. However, I am inexperienced and the best choice remains unclear.
I know how to do this in X11, but I wish to stay with Wayland - as I assume it is 'the future' of the RPiOS.
Which is the most appropriate method to start a terminal command automatically? wayfire.ini? a desktop file? Thank you in advance for your time.

Code:
rpicam-vid -t 0 --inline --width 1920 --height 1080 --framerate 30 -o - | cvlc stream:///dev/stdin --sout '#rtp{sdp=rtsp://:8554/stream1}' :demux=h264
