Thanks

Hi Felix,

Sadly still trying to finish it. I unfortunately have been super busy in my personal Business life BUT do know, this is something that has already mostly been built.

Creating the ability to permit easy deployment so folks can install as a Binary Package as well.

If it could run on the $5 pi, this would be amazing / revolutionary!!!

Hello,

Currently being properly revised again to work on the Pi Zero. Bare with me. :)

Awesome, I'm also looking forward to this try with my Pi 2. Will it have a "screen cast" mode as well to share a desktop or powerpoint, for example? Thanks for what you do!

lanceseidman commented 8 years ago

Well, trying to use WebRTC for remote desktop view but otherwise a 3rd party feature may be forced (e.g. VNC).

Thanks @lanceseidman for your reply. I wonder what protocol the Chromecast app uses for screen sharing? I wonder if it's turning the entire screen into a compressed video stream and sending it over UDP or something similar? The delay is minimal at 150ms to 400ms or under from what I see, which is pretty usable when using apps (scrolling, video, etc). I don't know much on the dev side but I can help test if needed (I have Mac, Windows, Linux, and Android systems here handy).

Days and almost a year of waiting, the easy, super tiny coded PiCAST is on its way & available as a node project.
