[Feature Request] AirPlay and Video Out

Open khb008 opened this issue 10 years ago • 9 comments

This is obviously not urgent at all. However, i was trying out AirPlay and it seems like this would be an amazing feature to have. Currently, mirroring from any 4:3 device creates a 4:3 mirror that has black bars.

16:9 device like iPhone 6 can do full screen screen mirroring however the mirroring is over all slower than actual video stream. Causes a drop in frames every now in then in the GameStream itself.

Will be amazing if you can add this feature...eventually, I just wanted to throw it out there.

I have been thinking about this same feature. As soon as we have a 1.0 release I will start looking into the more "razzle dazzle" features like this.

Great! I'm glad to see that you guys are really excited about the iOS version of Limelight now!

What happened to this idea, seems like an amazing feature, even if it might be over HDMI Out, there should be a Airplay feature.

That was actually working for me the first time I tried it.

This is already possible with mirroring, however going up to higher resolutions like that of a TV would be nice. I can't see getting good performance at that resolution though.

I would think that Airplay at HD resolutions would result in unnecessary strain on your network. Perhaps just HDMI out and #37 , #173 .

I hacked in support for AirPlay in a personal build today and it seemed to work pretty well. I was using an iPad mini 2 and streaming full widescreen 720p 60fps to my Apple TV. My Gamevice won't be here until Thursday and I'm leaving for a trip on Saturday so I won't have a lot of time to test it. I can implement it as an actual feature and submit a pull request when I return if there is interest.

Push it to your personal repo and I’ll be glad to work on it as well. We really shouldn’t do a pull on a hacky implementation.

I pushed the change to my personal repo. I doubt I will have time to work on it until I return late this month.
