Enable external display support on iPad by allowing the OS to control the window shape and size. #608

Open WolfLink opened 3 months ago

WolfLink commented 3 months ago

Removing "UIRequiresFullScreen" and adding all 4 of the orientations will cause the OS to enable all of the iPadOS multitasking configurations, which most importantly includes going full screen on an external display.

This will also allow having another app open side-by-side with this one on the iPad itself.

Here are issues with people requesting this behavior:

This is the last piece of the puzzle for me. Would love to see this in the next update!

This can't be merged without properly handling rotation and resizing while streaming. The stream view, on screen controls, and stats overlay all get cut off if resized or rotation while streaming.

Just wanted to add that I have started working on this. I have a proof-of-concept, but I don't want to update the pull request until I think its ready.

This is what I need also to use Moonlight. My process won't allow me to not use it on an external display. Excited to see this feature, and thank you so much for addressing it!

Thanks for trying to implement this! If there is anything I can do regarding testing etc. I would love to help out any way I can.

Any news on this? Would love to use my iPad on TV with moonlight

Please make it happen! Thank you Besides, is it possible to make it work without stage manager? Similar to Netflix, when it plays video in mirror mode, it enters to full screen in external monitor. So that I don't need external keyboard and mouse.

Probably need to lock the orientation while steaming to avoid a lot of issues with rotation.

So I’ve got a version that supports rotating mid-stream no problem. The delay is that the on-screen controls don’t scale properly to arbitrary resolutions so I need to fix that. Also there’s something weird with the computer selection GUI that I haven’t looked into yet.
