How do you actually get it to show?

So I have them connected and the console says it too but I cant see the screen?

Im on linux - rasbian.

I get this error too:

you need to install ffmpeg $ sudo apt-get install ffmpeg

Try it with just that first. If it doesn't work,

You might need to install these: $ sudo apt-get install libgstreamer0.10-dev libgstreamer0.10-0-dbg libgstreamer0.10-0 gstreamer0.10-tools gstreamer-tools gstreamer0.10-doc gstreamer0.10-x gstreamer1.0-libav

And install this from this repo:

$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mc3man/gstffmpeg-keep
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg

FYI: The Python version doesn't work at all with Ubuntu 16.04, the device connects, but nothing shows up :( . You have the use the binary. Some devices just don't work (like my Nexus 6) and others do (like my Galaxy Tab A 8.0).

@jmans25 Do I have to run gstreamer in order to get it to show?

[jmans25]

@githistory No, it runs automatically if u have everything installed right

@jmans25 thanks for the answer. This means that I'm probably missing some settings on my Ubuntu 16.04.
