4 years ago I had this problem using a cheap mini pc as the HDMI input.
With the cheap mini PC if I ran the script piped into ffplay nothing would show and then if I unplugged and replugged the HDMI - I'd get at least 1 frame through as the desktop would show but it wouldn't update.
Switching the source to a Chromecast worked perfectly.
Edit 4: On the chance that I do get the glitchy output, it looks like this: https://i.imgur.com/nXOzjOG.png
I tried mutliple sources.
Edit 3: Doesn't seem to work anymore, for some reason, not even the glitchy video output.
Edit 2: Alright, I had to use the Destination ip and port. "ffplay -i udp://@226.2.2.2:2068" gave me some glitchy video, but it's something.
Edit 1: On second thought, the packages seem to be MPEG packages actually. But I still can't seem to record or stream them (correctly).
I am using the v0.2 .deb release, having hooked the v2.0 HDMI Extender TX Sender hooked up through Ethernet directly on one of my two Ethernet ports on my motherboard.

The activation trigger activation works, it starts sending out data. But the de-ip-hdmi program doesn't seem to do anything with it, see the screenshot. (I did hit Ctrl+C after a while) Nor does Wireshark seem to interpret anything as mpeg packages?
I also tried using VLC during this, capturing a network steam with: "udp://@192.168.168.55:48689", but it doesn't seem to exist.
I might be missing something here, the board I have is identical to the one used in benjojo's blog.
