Password in airplay

Open lsilva97 opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

Hello!

Is this possible insert a password in rpiplay? Only who knows the password mirroring to rpiplay.

You should add a PayPal donate!!!

Thanks by your job!

While the AirPlay Mirroring protocol has support for PINs (aka device verification) at least (not sure about passwords), I'm not going to add support for them, because there's a whole lot of crypto stuff involved for (IMHO) little gain in functionality. For anyone interested in implementing this, a reference implementation is available here: https://github.com/funtax/AirPlayAuth.

I don't have a PayPal donation address (I actually think dsafa22 deserves all credit anyway), but if you want to give sth back and you know some C, I'd highly appreciate code contributions (features or bug fixes)!

Before looking at spending time on this could we confirm (as im not very accross airplay streaming vs airplay mirroring) if adding in this functionality would enable mirroring of applications that require DRM, eg apple movies, or is this a seperate issue?
